The award juror pool.

The open award jury pool consists of changing individuals who are committed to establishing overarching cooperation and effective good leadership. Accordingly, all ILD Leadership Award recipients are automatically members of the jury pool. These are executives from business, science, media and associations as well as representatives from politics and society.

The main tasks of the Juror Pool Rotation are to participate in the annual nomination, evaluation and selection process, provided they have been appointed to the annual jury for the Award Team’s award process. Here, too, the best possible diversity should be taken into account when making appointments.

The formation of the annual Award Jury.

The members of the annual Award Jury (approx. 8 to 12 jurors) are appointed by the Award Management and the Award Core Team and are made up equally as follows:

• Jury members from the pool of jurors
• Jury members from the Award Core Team
• The greatest possible diversity in terms of gender, generation and substantial management experience should be taken into account.
