It's all in the detail
It might seem an obvious point, but before you begin writing make sure that you read the questions carefully. It might help to underline the key points and later, review your answers to ensure that you are addressing those specific issues.
Back up your claims with evidence. Get straight to the point and tell the judges what you have done and then explain why there was a need for it and finally, how this has benefited your organization or clients.
Keep the key criteria in mind
Along with an overall review of the submission as a whole, each entry is judged using a fairly complex system of scoring against the following criteria, so always keep these points in mind:
- Innovation
- Strategy
- Results
- Impact of the work
Make your achievements stand out
Remember that the judges will be reading a tremendous amount of material and although they are extremely dedicated and will read everything carefully, if you can make it easier for them to see the pertinent information quickly and easily, it can only be to your benefit.
