RQT/Awards

RQT Roundup

by the RQT

The new Recognition Quality Team (RQT) has been quite busy this summer. In addition to the many many BRAVOs and Recognition Treat Certificates that Financial Management has given, we have presented two LINQ Awards, thrown a handful of Expresses, hosted a Person-to-Person Lunch, and with the EIT, co-hosted the Financial Management Summer Event. Here are the details:

LINQ

Jeff Follman, Director of Financial Accounting and Reporting, received a LINQ Award on July 7, 2005 for the qualities of Trusting of Others, Approachable, and Inspiring. Jeff received heavy praise for dedication to his job and showing a genuine interest in others. “Jeff always tries to involve the right people in decision making. He makes sure he is getting everyone’s input before making a decision. Jeff listens in a non-judgmental way. He makes people feel comfortable to talk openly and share information with him. I really appreciate this unique aspect of his character.” Congratulations Jeff!

Ginny Montgomery, Assistant Director in the Payroll office, received a LINQ award on July 18, 2005 for the qualities of “ Trustworthy,” Trusting of Others,” “Approachable,” and “Inspiring.” Ginny was considered as “the GO TO” person for questions. Ginny is “a great team player, and a reliable carpool partner.” She has the talents and skills, and she is “extremely dependable and does not fail to deliver on her commitments.” Congratulations Ginny!
