‘This is a category that can be tricky to judge. Sometimes some of the judges on the panel will have personal experience of the nominees; other times it is simply about relying on what we have in front of us. For me, there are two elements that make for a good entry in the rising star category: clear and detailed information about the changes that person brought to the company and the results those activities produced – ideally including external and internal feedback – and a sense of personality.
‘For me, getting that sense of who someone is and of his or her passion for investor relations can make a real difference – especially in a category where all the short-listed IROs really are rising stars.’
This year, the as-yet undecided judging panel will choose the best in IR from across eight categories at each event:
- Best annual report
- Best crisis management
- Best ESG materiality reporting
- Best investor event
- Best IR during a corporate transaction
- Best IR website
- Best use of multimedia for IR
- Rising star.
