Following a very successful introduction, SME News is proud to announce the return of the Managing Director of the Year Awards 2023 for its second instalment!
Exclusively devoted to rewarding the very best Managing Directors from across the UK, these awards offer a unique opportunity to gain recognition for both you and your business.
The role of the Managing Director (MD) has evolved significantly in recent years. Today’s MDs are expected to have a wide range of skills from exquisite leadership capabilities to possessing the necessary strategic insight to base key decisions on. A truly successful MD, though, goes beyond these basic requirements. They must also be able to forge and sustain key relationships based on trust and confidence, and to drive their business forward with proactive and thoughtful leadership on issues like diversity and climate.
The Managing Director of the Year Awards 2023 uses a rigorous, merit-based research process to identify and recognise the best MDs from across the UK! Our meticulous and equitable selection process ensures that only the most deserving participants are recognised. Our selection process considers a variety of factors including business performance, growth, and innovation, as well as testimonials from colleagues and stakeholders.
We gather information from a wide range of publicly available sources. Nominees are also welcome to provide additional information to support their candidacy, with our judging panel carefully reviewing all material to determine who our successful candidates will be.
This year’s successful nominees will be provided with access to our complimentary celebration package to announce the news to their audience, as well as being able to utilise the SME News brand and our circulation figure of 78,000 to be promoted on our official website for the foreseeable future.
By participating in this hugely successful SME News awards programme, you can gain recognition for your hard work and showcase your business’s achievements to a wider audience.
Being successful in the Managing Director of the Year Awards can prove to be a great marketing tool, with it providing third-party validation of your business’ excellence. This can help to attract new customers and partners and can even lead to increased investment opportunities!
Additionally, this awards programme provides a fantastic networking opportunity! By participating, you will be able to connect with other successful managing directors and learn from their experiences, which in turn can help you to develop new ideas and strategies for growing your business.
