Celebrating Inclusive Leadership: The 2024 Inclusive Leadership Impact Awards

In 2020, as the world grappled with the unprecedented challenges of a global pandemic and the profound societal impact following the tragic murder of George Floyd, I found myself envisioning a beacon of light amidst the prevailing darkness. My goal was clear: to acknowledge and celebrate leaders committed to fostering inclusivity. This vision, shared with my colleague Joe Santana, was significant and needed a platform to flourish.

Although the idea was initially set aside, it regained traction and resurfaced with renewed vigor in 2023. This revival led to the birth of the first Inclusive Leadership Impact Awards, marking the beginning of a tradition dedicated to honoring those who champion inclusive leadership.










Honoring Trailblazers in Inclusive Leadership

Today, the SME Inclusive Leadership Impact Awards pay tribute to trailblazing leaders who have left an indelible mark within their workplaces, communities, schools, or non-profit organizations. These leaders are recognized for their commitment to inclusive leadership principles and the implementation of transformative initiatives that foster diversity, equity, and inclusion.


The awards aim to shine a spotlight on those who go above and beyond in their efforts to create environments where everyone feels valued and included. Their work is not only inspiring but also instrumental in driving positive change and setting a benchmark for others to follow.
