2010 CATEGORIES

One winner and up to three Honorable Mention awards will be granted in each category, with the exception of the Grand category. For the Grand Award, only one entry will be selected as very best speech of the year.

A speech can be entered in three main sections: Best-Written Speech by Organization Type; Best-Written Speech on a Topic; and Best-Written Speech for a Special Occasion.

Speeches can be entered in one or more categories. For example, a speech about leadership for the CEO of a pharmaceutical company can be entered in both the Topic category of "Leadership and Management" AND the Organization Type category of "Pharmaceuticals." There is a separate entry fee for each category entered. The Grand category is considered a separate category, and there is a fee for this category as well.

If you have any questions on the categories, please feel free to call us at 1-888-303-2373.
