The President’s Award of Excellence Committee and President Burstein are pleased to announce the 2017 President’s Award of Excellence. We had a lot of great nominations again this year, and it was a hard decision. The awards are based on the following criteria: support, stewardship, innovation and teamwork. The winners this year excel in all areas. Please congratulate Nicole Schultz from Campus Services and Lisa VanZeeland from Payroll!
Nicole is responsible for maintaining Lawrence cleanliness standards for Wilson House, the Chapel, and other offices on campus. Nicole showcases all of the criteria for the award. A hallmark of Nicole’s work is her above-and-beyond commitment to the support of the Lawrence family. She does not just take care of buildings, she takes care of people. Those of us who are fortunate enough to have worked in a building that Nicole takes care of can attest to her deep care and responsible management of University resources. Her work is exceptionally thorough, as evidenced by how spotlessly clean her buildings look and smell. Nicole drives innovation, initiative, and leadership in the workplace in several ways. She is always finding creative ways to do her work, problem solve, and support the team better. For example, she takes the initiative to alert staff when supplies are getting low or to submit repair orders. Though she rarely sees us, Nicole understands how important her role is to the work we do every day. Congrats, Nicole, on this achievement!
Lisa is responsible for the payroll process at Lawrence. Lisa exemplifies all of the criteria listed for the award. She extensively supports the international student community in an above and beyond what is expected, but in a way that helps both the Payroll and the International Student Services Office work together efficiently and effectively. No matter what the task, Lisa is always exceptionally cheerful, helpful, and friendly. The international students are always exceedingly grateful for her help and always feel like they can go to Lisa’s office with a question or concern. Lisa is always driving innovation and showing her leadership by offering ideas to improve efficiency, preparing documents in advance, and most importantly sets an example of a consummate professional always being kind and understanding to students. Congratulations on this achievement, Lisa!
Please take a minute to congratulate Nicole and Lisa. The awards were presented at the Service Award Luncheon, and the winners will also be recognized during the next all-staff meeting. A big thank you to everyone who nominated a colleague. We appreciate the considerable effort that went into each nomination and look forward to reviewing the nominations again next year. Thank you!
