The Director’s Award
This is awarded by the Director and the recipient is selected from among the nominations received for awards in the other categories.
The judging panel, made up of a representative cross-section of staff and chaired by Andrew Young, Chief Operating Officer, will meet in December to shortlist the finalists and decide on the winner for each award.
All individuals and teams shortlisted for an award will be invited to a VIP Awards afternoon in January 2017, where we will celebrate everyone’s achievements and the winners will be presented with their awards.
Many thanks to everyone who nominated colleagues for the 2015 VIP Awards, we had a great response with over 80 nominations from across LSE. The worthy winners can be all be found here.
