One of the most exciting facets of the Leadership Awards is the two categories established to give recognition to the industry’s up-and-coming leaders as well as our established leaders:
(1) Emerging Leader – to recognize those whose leadership is coming to the forefront based on some early success
(2) Established Leader – to recognize those whose leadership has yielded their sustained success
In the spirit of inclusion, up to 10 individuals may be recognized. The number of awards to be presented each year will depend on the calibre and number of nominations received.
As the only national program of its kind for property and casualty (P&C) insurance professionals, the CIP Society National Leadership Awards have been created to recognize achievement across Canada. To stay true to this vision, nominations will be accepted from, and may be presented in, each of four regions: Western, Ontario, Quebec and Atlantic.
A fair and impartial judging panel will support the integrity of the National Leadership Awards. The judging panel is comprised of CIP Society members representing all regions. Judging of the nominations will be anonymous, with decisions based on nominees' personal qualities, professional commitment and accomplishment, including industry contribution and community engagement. It is up to nominators to clearly substantiate the nominees' leadership qualities and to demonstrate that their leadership has been impactful, collaborative and/or innovative so as to merit a National Leadership Award.
