Leadership Excellence Pin
The design
On the pin
A navy shield edged in gold tone. LEADERSHIP runs across the top, a gold crown sits in a white medallion, and EXCELLENCE is set on the banner at the point.
What it means
The crown stands for responsibility, and the shield for the people a leader protects. Together they make the most formal award in our recognition range, suited to leadership program graduates and manager of the year awards.
Colors and finish
Navy and gold carry authority. Hard enamel gives a polished face for a presentation in front of senior leaders.

More employee recognition pins
Can we put the cohort year on it?
Yes. The banner can carry the year, or it can be engraved on the back.
Can the crown be replaced with our logo?
Yes. Your logo can go in the medallion if it is simple enough for 1 inch.
Hard or soft enamel?
Hard enamel is recommended for a leadership award; its polished face looks like jewelry.
Can we put the employee’s name on the pin?
Yes, laser engraved on the back of each pin.
Can we make a set of award pins?
Yes. Using one shape for every award keeps the set consistent and lowers cost.
How big is a 1-inch pin?
Slightly larger than a US quarter. It is the most common lapel size for service awards. Your proof shows the pin at actual size.
