Business Post launches the 2025 Leadership Awards
The Business Post has officially launched its second Leadership Awards, in association with Grant Thornton.
Building on the success of last year's inaugural event, this year will again honour visionary executives, rising leaders, and changemakers who demonstrate innovation, integrity and influence in their fields.
The awards will feature categories spanning corporate leadership, social impact, diversity and inclusion, and digital transformation.
The awards ceremony, which will be held on November 6 at The Intercontinental Hotel in Dublin, is expected to draw top executives, entrepreneurs and thought leaders from across the country.
'Our Leadership Awards seek to recognise those leaders whose achievements have resonated with their staff, customers, clients and communities,' said Daniel McConnell, editor of the Business Post. 'They acknowledge the impact that effective leadership can have in terms of innovation, impact and growth.'
'This event is not just a recognition of individual success, but a testament to the power of effective leadership in driving innovation, fostering growth and creating lasting impact,' said Business Post chief executive Sarah Murphy.
The launch comes at a time when leadership is being tested more than ever. From navigating post-pandemic shifts to championing sustainability and equity, today's leaders face challenges that require not just business acumen but empathy and adaptability.
At last year's awards, a total of 14 awards were presented across a range of categories including CEO of the year (large business), CEO of the year (small to medium business), chief marketing officer of the year, ESG leader of the year, and chief financial officer of the year.
Anne O'Leary, head of Meta Ireland, received the special achievement award for her outstanding contribution to business with more than 25 years of senior leadership roles in the IT sector. The judges noted that Anne has led with an attitude that has proven inspirational far beyond the organisations she has worked within.
