Nominated by Matthew Spangler
Want to celebrate and recognize a colleague's successes, large and small – the things they do in the workplace that make this a better place to be for faculty, staff or students? Perhaps it’s a single one-time action or step, or perhaps it’s something they do day in and day out. It doesn’t have to be a huge action; sometimes it’s the smallest kindnesses or efficiencies that make the biggest difference.
The problem is: We rarely hear about them. Here’s your chance to recognize those around you – what we’re calling a Kudos Corner in ThisWeek@IANR.
