Big impact doesn’t always come from big change.
Sometimes, it’s the small, thoughtful improvements that make work better every single day.
That’s why we’ve launched the Productivity Pro Awards.
The Productivity Pro Awards celebrate individuals, teams and businesses who’ve made real, practical improvements to how work gets done. Whether it’s simplifying a clunky process, helping people work better together, improving wellbeing, or developing talent in a way that truly stuck, these awards shine a spotlight on the work that often flies under the radar but makes a genuine difference.
This isn’t about grand gestures or glossy initiatives.
It’s about what actually worked.
So, what is a Productivity Pro?
A Productivity Pro is someone who:
- Made a meaningful improvement to day‑to‑day working life
- Focused on practical outcomes, not just good intentions
- Created change that people noticed and felt
Often, it’s the kind of work that makes Mondays better… but doesn’t always make the headlines.
Why nominate?
Because great work deserves recognition.
Nominating is a chance to pause, reflect and say: “That made a difference.”
You can nominate:
- Yourself
- A colleague
- A team
Award categories
There are five categories designed to reflect the many ways productivity shows up in real life:
-
Why Didn’t We Do This Sooner?
A simple improvement that made work clearer, faster or less painful and just became the new normal. -
One Small Change, Big Difference
A small, smart change that delivered outsized results, saving time, reducing friction or making work easier for everyone. No overhaul required. Just a great idea done well. -
Collaboration That Delivered
A team who worked across roles, departments or organisations and delivered something better together than they could alone. -
Wellbeing That Works
An approach that genuinely improved wellbeing and performance, showing that looking after people is good for business. -
Developing Talent That Sticks
People, programmes or practices that helped others build skills, grow faster and actually want to stay.
