Entry Tips
From the Chairman - Simon Flowers
“The most asked question is how do I find time to write the entry?’’
My Top Tips are:
- View the online Writing & Presentation Workshops. Go to ‘Get Prepared’
- Write each section on a separate day and finish with the business summary. In a week you will have a good chunk of your entry written.
- Write down your top 10 points for each question.
- Check your word count – if you only have space for 5 or 6 of your points in each criteria, please keep the remainder up your sleeve to strengthen the site visit.
- Use helpers – you don’t need to write it yourself. Speak to The GBEA team if you are looking for writing assistance. Better still, allocate sections to your employees to complete. It is a great way to get your team involved.
- If you are a first-time entrant, you can submit your entry early for some initial feedback. Make use of this service!
- Bullet point your answers only – it’s not a thesis.
