What is the Boardroom Insight Leaderboard?

The Boardroom Insight Leaderboard is the consulting sector’s toughest-to-win industry award and ranking program.

How does it increase my firm’s revenue?

The Boardroom Insight Leaderboard adds validation from the business press to the specific service or consulting team your leadership is prioritizing today as part of its current revenue growth strategy.

Examples:

  1. Your firm just expanded into a new market and your local team could benefit from an early boost to kickstart its growth efforts. Getting the local team honored in the Boardroom Insight Leaderboard builds a foundation for near-term sales expansion
  2. Let’s say your firm is prioritizing a new solution such as an AI-powered marketing service as part of its Q4 2026 sales push. You can actively accelerate the sales effort by earning the new marketing service media recognition in the Boardroom Insight Leaderboard

Why should I pick the Boardroom Insight Leaderboard over other award programs?

Look closely and you’ll notice that the other award programs you’ve been pitched have the following weak points:

  • They’re easy to win, which means your leads see right through them and are left unconvinced of your firm’s capabilities
  • They have been won by hundreds of your competitors
  • They’re overly broad (e.g. “Best Solution Provider 2027”) and not service-specific, which means they don’t tell leads why they should buy the specific service you’re pitching them

By contrast, the Boardroom Insight Leaderboard is:

  • Difficult to win, the only parameter that makes an industry award worthwhile
  • Provides validation from the business press to the specific consulting service you’re prioritizing today as part of your current revenue growth plan
  • Benefits from the fact that the most authentic place to get an industry award for a technology-powered consulting service like yours is a media outlet at the crossroads of technology and consulting. Boardroom Insight has interviewed business leaders across 10 out of the world’s 10 largest professional service networks, 2 out of the 3 largest cloud providers (Google Cloud and Amazon Web Services), 3 out of the world’s top 5 enterprise software companies, well over half the world’s 20 largest technology consulting firms by revenue and hundreds of other top brands

How does the nomination process work?

The award nomination workflow comprises three steps:

  1. First, you identify the business unit or team that provides the consulting service(s) your leadership is prioritizing as part of its current revenue growth strategy
  2. Second, you submit information about 3 successful projects that the business unit or team completed in the past year
  3. If your award nomination is accepted, the executive who leads the winning business unit or team wins a spot on the Boardroom Insight Leaderboard. Additionally, Boardroom Insight will publish a featured article spotlighting the winning business unit or team

What can my firm win?

The winner package includes the following items:

  1. A spot on the Boardroom Insight Leaderboard for the executive who leads the winning business unit or team
  2. A handcrafted award badge with no invisible AI tool watermark that you can confidently use in your sales emails, on your company’s website, at events and across other go-to-market surfaces
  3. A featured article discussing your firm’s award win and consulting capabilities with an optional executive interview
  4. A 10% discount on your next Boardroom Insight Leaderboard nomination
