As part of our ongoing commitment to cultivating a culture of servant leadership, we are dedicating the month August to fostering and recognizing these important behaviors across our company.
August Servant Leadership Winners:
Velosity’s IT Department
This group pulled together after the Crowd Strike issue and got our systems up and running very fast and were tremendously responsive. There was a lot of communications on the progress, the team was effective and demonstrated multiple servant leadership behaviors such as awareness & collaboration, support of coworkers, empathy, and putting others first. They came in extremely early when the issue arose and put in a lot of hours to get all of our systems back up and running. Great example of teamwork and sacrifice!
