About the Awards

The IoIC Awards identify and celebrate outstanding internal communication work by organisations, individuals, and teams. Now in their 71st year, these awards continue to highlight the achievements that elevate the profession and demonstrate its value.

Effective internal communication is a vital business function. When organisations communicate well internally, they become stronger. This strength fuels better performance, collaboration, innovation, reputation and enhances talent attraction and retention. Internal communication professionals play a crucial role in shaping a connected, engaged, and informed workforce—one that is purposeful and drives organisational performance.

As internal communication evolves, so does our practice. We continually embrace creativity, technology, and sophisticated measurement to innovate and amplify our impact. Our increasingly strategic role allows us to collaborate with colleagues across organisations, ensuring that communication not only informs but also inspires.

The IoIC Awards are judged by a panel of senior and experienced professionals, all experts in their field. These judges assess entries against high standards, providing critiques and feedback to highlight great practices and identify areas for growth. Winners of these prestigious awards exemplify excellence in the profession and showcase the transformative power of effective internal communication in creating better outcomes for all.
