Possible reasons for low

participation:
 Lack of Interest.

 Short submission deadline.

 Mail going unnoticed or slipping off the mind.

 Inability to manage it with academics.

Possible reasons for poor quality of submission:

 Lack of seriousness.

 Inability to leverage available resources like SME’s or Library.

 Poor time management.

 Lack of subject knowledge.

 Sub par presentation skills.

 Ways to increase participation:
 Conducting a quick briefing about the organization and its subsidiaries.

 The importance of such competitions can be better explained to the

students. For ex, an FMCG firm floats a marketing based competition, it is the tendency of
finance or ops students to believe that it might not be relevant to their domain of interest.

 Helping students realize the tremendous learning opportunities attached

with such competitions.

 Incentivize students by giving them more recognition.

 Send regular reminders and follow up emails about the competition.

 Conduct workshops on time management.

 Ways to improve Quality of Submissions:

 For the first couple of competitions, we can have a quick in house

evaluation by the club/committee members.

 Encourage students to conduct thorough research on the topic.

 A workshop on presentation skills.
