Nominations for this year’s Vice-Chancellor’s Awards close at 17:00 this Thursday 10 June.
Need some inspiration? We recently published a ‘demystifying the categories’ segment in the June edition of Staff Matters.
As well as including your own thoughts on why you believe a particular member of staff or team deserves to win an award, you can strengthen your nominations by looking up the individual or team’s line manager via the University’s organisational charts, and getting in touch with them to request additional feedback or background information on their employee’s achievements. They might have broken a team record for the most student enquiries answered in a day, for example; maybe they came up with an idea which sparked an amazing campaign; or perhaps they’ve played a pivotal role in bringing impactful research to light.
Please remember that nominations don’t necessarily need such additional information to be successfully shortlisted, or go on to win an award, but it might help your nomination stand out!
