Are you a leader who drove business growth?

Could you be crowned Growth Leader of the Year at TheBusinessDesk.com’s new Growth Awards 2027?

This award is for a leader who set the strategic direction and delivered the commercial outcomes during a defined period of significant business growth.

One chapter, told well.

We’re not looking for a career retrospective — we’re looking for the decisions, the drive, and the results that defined a specific moment.

Entries should tell us:
What was the growth challenge or opportunity the leader faced?
What did they do, decide or change that made the difference?
What were the results, and how directly did the leader’s leadership produce them?
What did this period demand of them personally?

The awards are in partnership nationally with Brown Shipley, a Quintet Private Bank, and leading law firm Clarion and Leeds University Business School joining as a headline sponsors in Yorkshire.

To enter the awards visit: Yorkshire Growth Awards 2027

The Growth Leader category is one of 12 awards in the new Yorkshire Growth Awards, which celebrate the companies, teams and individuals driving business growth across the region.

The awards span three strands – Company, Team and Individual – with categories recognising everything from finance, technology, people and board excellence.
