An award is something given to a person or group of people to recognize excellence in a certain field. Awards are often signified by trophies, certificates, plaques, medals, badges, pins or ribbons. An award can simply be the public acknowledgment of excellence.
One common type of award in the United States is the 'employee of the month.' award, in which typically the recipients' names are listed in a prominent place in the business for that month.
