The International League Manager of the Year Award was an annual award given to the best manager in Minor League Baseball's International League. In 1967, Jack Tighe of the Toledo Mud Hens won the first International League Manager of the Year Award. The final award was issued in 2019 to Damon Berryhill of the Gwinnett Stripers. The 2020 season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic,[1] and the league ceased operations before the 2021 season in conjunction with Major League Baseball's reorganization of Minor League Baseball.[2]

The only manager to have won the award on three occasions is Joe Altobelli, who won in 1971, 1976, and 1980. Other managers with more than one award are Buddy Bailey, Eddie Haas, Dave Miley, Charlie Montoyo, Joe Morgan, Al Pedrique, Rick Sweet, and Jack Tighe, each with two wins. Tighe (1967 and 1968), Altobelli (1976 and 1977), Haas (1981 and 1982), Pedrique (2016 and 2017), and Sweet (2008 and 2009) won the award in consecutive years.

Seven managers from the Pawtucket Red Sox and Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Red Barons/Yankees/RailRiders were selected for the Manager of the Year Award, more than any other teams in the league, followed by the Rochester Red Wings (6); the Syracuse Chiefs (5); the Buffalo Bisons, Charleston Charlies, Richmond Braves, Tidewater Tides, and Toledo Mud Hens (3); the Columbus Clippers, Durham Bulls, Louisville Bats, and Norfolk Tides (2); and the Charlotte Knights, Gwinnett Stripers, Lehigh Valley IronPigs, Memphis Blues, and Ottawa Lynx (1).

Seven managers each from the Baltimore Orioles and Boston Red Sox Major League Baseball (MLB) organizations won the award, more than any others, followed by the New York Yankees organization (6); Cleveland Indians organization (5); the Atlanta Braves and Philadelphia Phillies organizations (4); the Detroit Tigers, Montreal Royals/Washington Nationals, and Toronto Blue Jays organizations (3); the Cincinnati Reds and Tampa Bay Rays organizations (2); and the Chicago White Sox, Houston Astros, and Pittsburgh Pirates organizations (1).
