Integrity Christmas Party and Yearly Awards

Following the game, Jeff took some time to introduce the first annual Integrity Awards. The winners of these awards were peer given, so each employee had an opportunity to vote on who best exemplified the qualities listed for the award. An employee from each division was selected  to receive the award. 

The Keep Growing Award which was given to someone on the team who demonstrated meaningful personal and professional growth in the last year. Other characteristics of this award winner include emerging leadership, receptivity to feedback, and adaptability to change or challenges. This year our commercial foreman, Elijah Tutterrow, received the award. There was a tie in the residential department with both Greg Smith from residential sales and Daniel Newton, a residential installer, receiving the award.

The Got Your Back Award was given to someone on the team that demonstrated a dependable, collaborative spirit over the last year. Other characteristics included voluntarily assisting others, building others up, and recognizing the achievements of their teammates. Sawyer McCall, commercial foreman, was the award recipient for the commercial department, and Mia Barnes, account manager, and Katie Wakefield, customer service manager, received the award for the residential team.

The final award was given to only one employee in the entire organization. The Gold Star Award was given to someone in the company who demonstrated Integrity's core values. Whether interacting with customers or team members, this individual stands out to you as a prime example of Integrity's heart and mission. The winner of this year's Gold Star award was Katie Wakefield, our customer service manager and scheduler extraordinaire.

As the evening’s festivities drew to a close, employees had the opportunity to say a few words of appreciation for each other and for our company. Every employee was given a beautifully crafted wooden Christmas tree ornament as a way to remember our unity as a team throughout the ups and downs of this past year.
