Honour your mentor at the West Midlands Leadership Awards 2025
Who has gone above and beyond to mentor the next generation of leaders over the last 12 months?
This is your chance to nominate them in our annual search for the West Midlands’ business heroes.
The West Midlands Leadership Awards 2025 is an annual celebration which will highlight the people who are role models within their organisations and raise the bar for their competitors. The winners will show the qualities of extraordinary leadership and be able to demonstrate the positive impact this has had.
Your nominee could follow in the footsteps of last year’s winner, Mike Powers – Clancy Consulting.
Judges were impressed with Chartered Building Services Engineer and Director Mike, who started mentoring 16 years ago. He’s since supported women in engineering or computing industry sectors and has made a lasting impact on the careers and lives of his mentees and staff.
