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:

1. View the online Writing & Presentation Workshops. Go to ‘Get Prepared’ 

 

2. 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.

 

3. Write down your top 10 points for each question.

 

4. 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.

 

5. 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.

 

6. If you are a first-time entrant, you can submit your entry early for some initial feedback. Make use of this service!

 

7. Bullet point your answers only – it’s not a thesis.
