Pillar Awards

The Director's PILLAR Award (Performance, Incentives, and Leadership Linked to Achieve Results) is an honorary award granted by the Director of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) to recognize and publicize effective performance management practices that support alignment of employee performance with organizational strategic goals as well as results-oriented and customer-focused performance.

The award uses the architectural theme of a pillar because it is the foundation that supports a structure, just as effective performance management is the foundation that supports good management. Effective performance management is essential for organizational success.
