Core Lesson

Provide clear, well‑documented proof of award excellence, ensure all translations are properly certified and include author attribution, avoid public‑call participation when claiming judging roles, and demonstrate that any leadership role is company‑wide.

Evidence Issue

  • Proper certification of English translation for published material

  • Author name on the published article

  • Clear evidence that award certificates were granted for excellence, not merely participation

  • Evidence that the role was a leading one for the entire employer, not just a sub‑unit

  • Participation in public calls for comment disqualifies the judging claim
