Utilities organisations are changing, fast.

Customer experience is being redesigned, sustainability commitments are becoming vital, measurable programmes, technology is transforming how services are delivered, and teams are solving complex operational problems to create better outcomes for customers and communities.

The problem is, you, your teams, and leadership know just how much has changed internally, but do your customers and stakeholders really see (and believe) the same level of progress?

We call this the recognition gap: the distance between the impact you’re creating and how that impact is understood and recognised outside your organisation.

How external recognition can help you to build a great reputation and close the recognition gap

Great work doesn’t automatically equal a great reputation.

It’s easy to say your organisation is transforming, innovating or becoming more sustainable. The hard part is actually proving it.

Gaining credible external recognition can turn your internal achievements into independently accredited evidence of progress. Whether that’s official recognition of better customer outcomes, measurable sustainability impact, innovation, transformation, or the work of your people.

Which is exactly why we’ve created the Utilities Recognition Toolkit 2027.

Inside the toolkit, we share and explain:

The starting point when seeking external recogniton shouldn’t be:

“Which awards can we enter?”

It should be:

“What have we achieved that deserves to be recognised?”

Because if your organisation has transformed, your reputation shouldn’t still be telling yesterday’s story.

Frequently Asked Questions

Our Utilities Recognition Toolkit is for professionals in the Utilities sector interested in or responsible for entering and winning awards for your organisation. This could include, but is not limited to, CMOs, Marketing Managers, Learning & Development Managers, and Customer Service Team Leads and Managers.

The awards you can enter will depend on what you are achieving and your business goals. We have a list of utility industry business awards you can explore or get in touch with the team for support.

In a survey of award entrants, the highest percentage said they spent 6-10 hours preparing their entries, however this does not mean they prepared WINNING entries. In reality, to prepare a winning entry with outstanding supporting evidence, award entry writing experts will spend on average 3 days preparing a standard award entry, and often 2-8 weeks preparing a premium award entry like The King’s Awards for Enterprise.

If you want free support with your award entries we have a range of resources available. However, if you would prefer expert guidance and full management of your awards, from building an awards strategy to executing your award entries and all supporting evidence, including presentations, get in touch with our team of awards experts.
