The Eagle Awards were first introduced by Lyn Flannery & Associates in 2004 and have been set up to recognise and reward shopping centre marketers for excellence in marketing.

Lyn Flannery's history with 'Excellence in Marketing Awards' spans some 25 years, having co-ordinated and judged shopping centre marketing awards for the Property Council of Australia throughout Australia and New Zealand.
