By September 13, 2010 Press Releases

TIGA, the trade association representing the UK games industry, today announced that it has been named a finalist in the CMI National Management and Leadership Awards in the category of ‘The Outstanding Organisation of the Year Award (SME)’.

The National Management and Leadership Awards are organised by the Chartered Management Institute (CMI). The CMI contends that the future wealth and prosperity of the UK is dependent upon a competitive and determined mindset. Organisations are best placed to incorporate that mindset through strong leadership, good management, and a system of continuous improvement and learning. These awards are a benchmark against which organisations will be able to measure their capabilities in these areas. The CMI Awards specifically judge organisations on the fabric of their structure in addition to financial success. Criteria include the quality of an organisation’s processes, communications, continuous learning and good governance.

The CMI will announce the winners of each category at an awards dinner in London on 14th October 2010.

Dr Richard Wilson, TIGA CEO, said:

“We are delighted that TIGA has been named by the CMI as a finalist in the category of ‘The Outstanding Organisation of the Year Award (SME)’.
