ATD Talent Development for Good Award
Introducing a new award for 2021!
This is a new ATD award category. We are looking for pioneers who changed people’s lives for the better in 2020. Every person and organization had to pivot and make significant changes due to the pandemic. Some organizations created transformational change in service to others. That’s who this award is for, and we want to hear from you!
The ATD Talent Development for Good Award is given in recognition of organizations that leveraged talent development to make significant contributions to improve the lives of others, changed an industry or community for the better, or served society in a powerful way.
Organizations must demonstrate through their actions and evidence of measurable results that what they did—and may continue to do—is improving the human condition, is something that others can learn from their actions, and is sustainable over time. (Please note how this award differs from the ATD Innovation Award, which is given in recognition of an innovation that has a measurable impact on an organization or audience, moves the talent development industry forward.)
Eligibility:
This award is for organizations or entities that have a talent development function to apply for. Elected officials are not eligible.
