Margo Waldorf, founder, The Change Awards
The Change Awards united global change and innovation leaders under one roof on 25 April this year at the magnificent Drapers’ Hall in the City of London. This iconic venue served as a fitting backdrop to celebrate the ‘non-existent’ profession that has silently supported all industries and sectors for the past half-century.
Some 270 individuals from across the globe united behind the banner of facilitating and driving positive change and innovation, demonstrating the value of change in practice and the potential this developing profession offers. The spirit of cooperation and shared learning was a cornerstone of the event, with the conversations mainly oscillating around the rapid development of emerging technologies, their practical impacts and the pressure on leadership to take decisive action.
With prominent representatives from a wide range of organisations such as Pfizer, Wipro, NHS, BAE Systems, BBC, British Antarctic Survey, Astellas, AtkinsRealis, NFU Mutual, BP, HM Passport Office and more, the event’s recognition of the vital role of change professionals was almost palpable. It also powerfully showcased the perseverance of many individuals who champion human-centric change and orchestrate strategic implementation of innovation globally. Silent no more.
Long live change and its vibrant community! Will you join us next year?
