It was an honour to be a guest speaker on the power of humour in business at this year’s International Brilliance Awards™. The energy in the room was electric, and the winners’ passion was truly inspiring.

To win the Brilliance Award is the icing on the cake. Since we launched BK Hub with Oak Engage, we’ve watched it grow into something our people can’t live without, creating a real FOMO mentality internally.

Winning the Brilliance in Employee Wellbeing is a proud moment for DHL Global Forwarding. This recognition validates our commitment to fostering a supportive and positive work environment.

To be recognised as UK Business of the Year vindicates Bexley Beaumont’s model, vision, and strategy in the legal industry. Winning a business award is evidence of the firm’s progression and its approach to creating a thriving team culture.

Winning the Brilliance Award is a prestigious international recognition that highlights the impact of our hard work and innovation, validating the value we’ve created through our T.LifeApp.

For Samsic to win a Brilliance Award for our cultural transformation is recognition of the hard work carried out across the company. Winning among global industry leaders reassures us we’re on the right path, driving innovation and inclusivity.

For me and the whole team at ServiceMaster Clean AAA, winning multiple Brilliance Awards in 2025 means a great deal. Being awarded CEO of the Year is very rewarding, and the judges’ recognition is a huge honour.
