Honouring the excellence and innovation of teams and organisations in Victoria’s public purpose sector. 

About

Celebrating teams and organisations in the public purpose sector

The Leadership Awards play a critical role in connecting, empowering and celebrating Victoria’s public purpose sector through the recognition and acknowledgement of outstanding leadership.

These awards honour the excellence and innovation of teams and organisations working in, and with, the Victorian public purpose sector including Victorian community organisations, academics and experts, private firms and all three levels of government in Victoria – Commonwealth, State and Local. They represent a pinnacle of achievement and acknowledgement for those initiatives working for the benefit of the Victorian community.

The theme of the awards for 2025 is ’Making the difference – recognising exceptional design and delivery across the public purpose sector’. This theme has been designed to showcase the broad work across multiple sectors, which have a significant impact on the community, both now and into the future.
