Check out the NSW Mining’s top tips for making your submission stand out from the crowd. 1. Give yourself enough time – don’t leave it until the last minute! 2. Enlist help early – get help from your media team or someone who is skilled at advocating. 3. Address the judging criteria – use the award category criteria to answer questions specifically. 4. Quantify results – in other words ‘show, don’t tell’. 5. Provide supporting evidence – provide visual evidence to support your claims like photos, videos or reports. 6. Aim for the sky and go for high-quality – spelling, punctuation and language use is important. 7. Stick to the word count – be succinct and focus on key points. 8. KISS – Keep it simple and be specific with as many metrics, facts and figures as you can measure up. 9. Ice the cake – for individual awards include achievements in areas like volunteering, philanthropy, or specialised training. For company awards, explain what sets you apart from the rest. 10. Review – ensure the submission has been approved by relevant stakeholders and someone who can give you honest and objective feedback. In conclusion, make it EASY for the judges. Sell yourself or your program and convince them why you deserve to be the winner. |
