A winner from each category and an overall winner will be chosen from the shortlist by our expert panel of judges and announced at the Awards dinner on 27th September 2016, which will be held in The Great Room at the Grosvenor House Hotel on Park Lane.
Peter Cheese, Chief Executive at the CIPD, commented:
We’re delighted to be celebrating twenty years of the People Management Awards this year. We continue to see an extraordinary variety of innovative and creative entries every year, and 2016 has been no different
Flexibility is incredibly important in the modern workplace with a real imperative for supporting more diverse workforces and working environments. Organisations increasingly need to adapt their people management, job design, workplace practices and culture to the changing context of work, and move beyond the homogenous working practices and ways of thinking of the past. Not only will this help engage and retain great employees, it is vital in improving productivity and sustainable businesses in the longer term.
It’s very encouraging to see an understanding of these evolving contexts among so many of the shortlisted organisations, with much innovation and challenge being demonstrated. They should all be congratulated on their achievements.
