Harvard staff members contribute vitally to Harvard’s excellence. Staff contributions include building and maintaining a vast infrastructure (technical, financial, physical and human) upon which the academic enterprise relies.

Harvard Heroes is an annual program held each spring to celebrate high-performing staff from across every School and the Central Administration with both local and University-wide recognition. These staff members are nominated and/or selected by their peers and departments for their leadership, teamwork, adaptability, innovation and exceptional contributions. (For more information about Harvard Heroes, see the Fact Sheet.)

All employees are invited to attend the awards ceremony and reception, but first we need your help to identify the Heroes among us!

Being named a Harvard Hero is an honor of great distinction – only about 60 Heroes, or ½ of 1% of eligible staff, will be named. We need your help to make sure we find and recognize the staff Heroes at Harvard. Please review the nomination criteria and nominate your Harvard Hero during the nomination period of February 19 to March 8. The program welcomes nominations by one person as well as joint nominations submitted by more than one co-worker. (A strong nomination produced collaboratively between nominators will be given more weight than the number of nominations a potential honoree receives.)
