Judging process and information.
Our judging process is guided by the principles of fairness and impartiality, and we strive to recognize excellence in all forms. Jurors evaluate entries individually and then come together for a final round.
Process.
When judging entries, our jurors are asked to consider questions such as: Does the work break new ground in the industry? Does it inspire and captivate the audience? Does it demonstrate exceptional creativity and execution? Does it have the potential to make a lasting impact in the industry?
To ensure impartiality, jurors who submit work in a medium they are judging abstain from voting on that work in all rounds of judging. Additionally, jurors must remain unbiased and review all entries fairly and equally.
Fairness.
At the North American Soccer Business and Media Awards, we believe in the importance of recognizing excellence in all areas of soccer business and media. Our jurors are committed to a rigorous and objective evaluation process that highlights the best of the best in the industry.
Code of conduct.
Maintain confidentiality: We will keep all information related to the entries and judging process confidential, and not disclose any details to anyone outside of the judging panel.
Avoid conflicts of interest: We will disclose any personal or professional relationships we may have with any entrant or organization whose work is being evaluated, and recuse ourselves from judging any entry where a conflict of interest exists.
Act with impartiality: We will approach each entry with an open mind and evaluate it solely based on its merit, regardless of our personal preferences, biases, or relationships.
Exercise fairness: We will apply the same criteria and standards of evaluation to all entries, and ensure that each entry is judged based on its own merits, without any comparison to other entries.
