Who are the Most Inspiring Leaders, Teams and Organisations?

 

We are excited to share that the finalists for the Outstanding Leadership Awards have been announced! We received many nominations, all speaking volumes about the incredible leadership we see across Australia and the globe. We need more extraordinary role models and leaders; these Awards celebrate and showcase exceptional leadership. 

 

These finalists are the role models and leaders we need for our generations today and tomorrow. They are changing the face of leadership and inspiring more extraordinary leadership. 

 

We need more people to champion and espouse Great Leadership, and these leaders lead with kindness, courage and inclusion.

 

Outstanding Leadership Awards founder Sonia McDonald said courageous, inclusive, and kind leaders are becoming assets organisations seek to attract, and our generations of today and tomorrow need to see.  

 

"The awards champions and spotlight the greatest leaders and role models from across the globe," she said. "It's an excellent opportunity to be recognised as someone others seek to emulate and join other outstanding leaders and teams worldwide.

 

"The past few years have shown us how much the world needs courageous and kind leaders who lead by example and have purpose, passion, and drive. It has been hard on all businesses, organisations, the economy, and our community. We need strong leaders and great role models who can lead the way."

The Outstanding Leadership Awards embody a dream that commenced more than 20 years ago when we began working to help organisations and individuals achieve their leadership potential. These awards champion those who lead authentically with their values daily and strive to replicate them.

 

These leaders and organisations are changing the face of leadership, and we must celebrate and honour them. By demonstrating and rewarding these leaders, we encourage them now and in the future to strive to epitomise these values and be great examples for future generations.

Join us as we Celebrate Outstanding Leaders, Teams and Organisations.
