Overview
The Jury Awards module is designed for high-impact recognitions that require a neutral panel of experts to evaluate nominations. By involving a "Jury," organizations ensure that prestigious awards are granted based on merit, data-driven insights, and consistent criteria, rather than peer popularity alone.
What is a Jury Award?
A Jury Award is a specialized recognition category where final winners are decided by a designated group of moderators or "Jurors." While a standard recognition may be approved by a single manager, a Jury Award undergoes a rigorous vetting process. This often includes a first-level approval followed by a Jury evaluation phase, where submissions are rated on a scale (e.g., 1–5) based on specific "question-level" criteria or core value alignment.
Accessing Jury Award Nominations
To begin reviewing nominations, follow these navigation steps:
Navigate to Recognitions > Recognitions Approvals section in the main sidebar.
Click on "View all nominations" for viewing all the active Jury awards and the nominations for them.
View a list of all active award categories (e.g., "The Avengers Award").
Click on the specific award you wish to moderate or rate as a Jury.
Step 1: Filter and Organize Your View
Before you begin rating, use the advanced filtering system to organize your workspace. This is especially helpful for managing large volumes of nominations.
Filter by Nominee: Sort by User, Designation, Department, Location, Business Unit, Grade, or Cost Center.
Filter by Nominator: View submissions based on the users, Department, Designation, Cost Center, Business Unit, Location or Grade.
Sort Logic: Use the dropdown menu to display Unrated nominations first, or sort by Latest Submissions or Highest Rated.
Step 2: Review Nomination Details
Click on an individual nomination to open the detailed view. In this screen, you can see the "story" behind the nomination:
Nomination History: See exactly who nominated the employee and view the comments from the First Level Approval.
Supporting Evidence: Review the citation provided and any answers to mandatory award questions.
Step 3: Assign a Jury Rating
Once you have evaluated the merits of the nomination, you must provide your official Jury score:
Select Rating: Choose a score on the 1 to 5 scale provided in the rating panel.
Finalize: Click Save. Your rating is immediately reflected in the system. The total score will determine the final ranking of the nominee against others in the same Jury Award category.
