All of these categories have been specifically devised by our executive steering group, which comprises of both senior industry leaders and key stakeholders. The ESG have used their expert knowledge to play a pivotal role in keeping the category criteria, and the challenges they have in store, up to date with the developing sales industry.
To enter into a category, candidates must firstly receive full endorsement from their company before then deciding on one of the five categories which best suits their current position. Once confirmed, entrants will supply details of five healthcare professionals who would be able to provide feedback to support their entry. The judges will then contact those HCP’s for feedback to determine a score based on set criteria. The candidates judged to have the best scores from each category will be invited to take part in the live finals day.
The finals day will assess candidates written, communication, and presentation skills in a rigorous test, which will pit contestants head-to-head against their peers. As well as the chance of being crowned a winner, finalists will also receive quantitative and qualitative feedback from the judges; offering the opportunity to reflect and improve upon their sales performance.
