Dlamini - who is a medical doctor, business leader, and author - received the Leadership in Practice Award and the Woman in Leadership Award. Kgokolo, who is the interim CEO of the Air Traffic and Navigation Services, received the Emerging Leader Award.

The awards received by Dlamini and Kgokolo seek to honour individuals that have demonstrated outstanding leadership qualities in multiple spheres of society. The recipients are selected by SBL’s alumni and a panel of SBL experts who consider the nominee’s business or political achievements, as well as the value that these achievements have added to society. Each year the LIP Award recipient’s essence is encapsulated into a theme that overarches the awards ceremony and dinner event. For Dlamini, the theme was 'Bravely Illuminating'.
