Lianne Booth, Strategic Projects Director at Achievement Awards Group, receives the Pinnacle Award at the
Recognition Professionals International (RPI) 2025 Best Practice Standards® Awards held at the IMA Summit in Austin, Texas.
The Pinnacle Award goes to Achievement Awards Group (AAGroup) for its “Let’s Create Magic” campaign which achieved all seven of the RPI Best Practice Standards® categories with its employee recognition program in recognising and engaging employees.
Lianne Booth, strategic projects director at AAGroup explains: The “Let’s Create Magic” campaign was designed to evolve through adjusting leadership focus areas, responding to engagement metrics, and adapting to employee feedback. It is powered by our own proprietary cloud-based platform, which enables real-time, inclusive recognition and seamless rewards fulfilment. Key in this development is a multichannel, inclusive communication approach that ensures that all employees – regardless of work environment – can meaningfully participate. By using a blended, cascade training model, recognition education adapts to every employee level, empowering employees and leaders with the skills, tools, and mindset essential for building a culture where recognition is meaningful, personalised, and aligned to performance.”
