The influential and celebratory list of Inspiring Leaders, Innovators, Pioneers, and Changemakers shaping the workplace today.
Nominations for the Top 50 Class of 2026 have now closed. This prestigious list, nominated by workplace and FM peers and judged by our esteemed advisory council, recognises the most inspiring individuals driving positive change across the industry.
Stay tuned as we prepare to reveal the Class of 2026 and celebrate those leading the future of the workplace.
Workplaces will have countless people that are instrumental in facilitating success. They are the constants that provide the glue in many organisations but may not get the spotlight or recognition that they deserve. This category aims to change that and celebrate those that quietly go about making big impacts.
A profession is only as strong as its next generation. This category recognises future stars that are inspiring others to develop and grow as future workplace leaders. They would help those that have gone before them to understand new thinking and be bold in their ambition for the profession moving forward.
A profession that doesn’t evolve and innovate will quickly go stale. This category recognises those that dared to be different, to go against convention and that believed in better, despite many doubting them. Their experiences will inspire others to follow. They are challengers. Disruptors. Our workplace innovators.
An individual who has made a significant impact within their organisation, enhancing workplace experience for their people. They will demonstrate exceptional leadership through clear communication, developing future leaders, and sharing best practice to benefit the wider workplace community.
This category recognises individuals driving cultural change by championing diversity and inclusion. They work to build strong, open, and responsible communities within their organisation or across the profession - that welcome everyone and make a positive contribution to wider society.
This category recognises individuals whose critical thinking and fresh insights have shaped professional practice and inspired new ideas. They present cutting-edge concepts in an engaging way that compels others to think differently and drive progress
