The Business Issue Award
The Business Issue Award is given annually by the Gold Quill Blue Ribbon Panel. The panel chooses one entry that exemplifies the most outstanding work and strategic involvement on addressing a critical and current business issue that poses a significant threat to the economic well being and/or continued viability of their organization. The entry must present a clear, effective and innovative resolution with measurable results and serve as a model for other communication projects focusing on this specific business issue.
All Gold Quill entries that become winners are automatically considered for the award.
