This award recognises the delivery of improved business performance by implementing a programme of change and / or organisational development that also embeds a culture of sustainability.

Successful entries will demonstrate how concern for the environment and people drove the business strategy and change programme objectives, and has resulted in increased organisational performance, development of the culture, improved sustainability metrics, and an enhanced employee experience.

Entries should articulate HR’s contribution and role in the change programme, from making the business case, designing the approach, embedding the change programme, building cross functional collaboration, mitigating negative outcomes, measuring the impact, as well as identifying future change requirements and how they will sustain success. Evidence of success is likely to include how it has also benefited the environment, the employees and the community.
