Excellence in Management awards - nominations open!

March 29, 2018

(sent on behalf of the Berkeley Staff Assembly)

Dear Colleagues,
Is your manager or supervisor a superstar? A leader who truly shows how it’s done by inspiring and empowering the team around them? Here’s your chance to recognize their efforts - the Berkeley Staff Assembly is now accepting nominations for the 2018 Excellence in Management Awards (EIM). These awards honor exemplary managers and supervisors who have led their teams and team members to meaningful accomplishments this past year.

Now in its 30th year, the EIM Awards theme is, “Building Pride and Trust in Our Changing Community.” This highlights leadership which encourages respect, dignity, confidence, inclusion, and empowerment amid changing times.

You can nominate your managers/supervisors who exemplify the theme in one or more of the following ways:

  • Honest and Conscientious - manager/supervisor builds trust, models integrity, and instills pride within the team.

  • Consistent Intentional Engagement around Diversity, Community and Collaboration - manager/supervisor is always cognizant and respectful of cultural distinctions, and promotes an environment of inclusion.

  • Empowering - manager/supervisor provides team members with the tools to succeed at work, through mentorship, coaching/motivating, and leadership by example.

Please note that the EIM Awards are different from the Chancellor’s Outstanding Staff Award (COSA). Where COSA is open to all staff, our EIM awards honor managers and supervisors. The EIM Award is open to all levels of career, non-academic employees who have had management or supervisory responsibilities for at least one year in their current positions. Nominations must originate from staff directly supervised by the nominee, and include supporting signatures from at least one-half of these staff.

Award winners will be recognized at the EIM ceremony on May 31, 2018, at the Spieker Forum, Haas School of Business. Visit the BSA EIM website for more information.

The online nomination form may be accessed here

We need your nominations by Wednesday, April 18, 2018. Any questions, please contact the BSA EIM Committee at bsa_eim@berkeley.edu.

Thank you!

Berkeley Staff Assembly

If you are a manager who supervises UC Berkeley employees without email access, please circulate this information to all.
