The All Staff Council Recognition Committee is accepting True Blue nominations.
Do you know a staff member or department that is “Called to be True Blue?” An individual or team that goes above and beyond expectations to serve students, colleagues, and the Drake community.
A staff member who is Called to be True Blue is someone who:
- Epitomizes the values of leadership, teamwork, and integrity, and exhibits their commitment to the Drake community
- Has shown others what it takes to get a task or project done, and accomplishes that by working well with others
- Is able to be honest and fair in the situations they face
- Does all of these things for the betterment of Drake and its values and goals.
If this sounds like someone you know, make your nomination today!
All individual and teams who receive a Called to be True Blue award are in the running to win top honors for staff accomplishment—the Sapphire Award—at a recognition event in May.
Nominations are considered on a rolling basis. An individual can only be recognized once each year. Nominations must be received by March 1 to be considered for that year’s Sapphire Award. Nominations received after March 1 will be considered for recognition in the fall and will be included in the following fiscal year’s Sapphire Award voting.
