Each of our employees adds value to the company by bringing their own set of skills, experience and background to work every day. For our November STRIVEr, her experience in banking helped her step up to help the accounting department during one of their busiest times of year. Congratulations to Tarah Bean, logistics billing/collections specialist, for earning this month’s STRIVEr award! Read her full nomination below.More
If you give our October STRIVEr a GoPro, chances are you’re going to get a lot of b-roll footage. And that’s okay, because the footage successfully documented our time at the 2022 Farm Progress Show and made for a few really good TikToks. Here’s how Jacob DeLay, flow control and electronics technician exceeded expectations and earned the October STRIVEr honor.
With little review and guidance, our September STRIVEr took the lead to make sure our logistics division was handling claims issues. Heidi Smith, carrier development manager, exceeded expectations by not only tackling those pending claims but took the time to develop a procedure that we use today. Read Heidi’s nomination that earned her the September STRIVEr award.
Employees’ years of service are milestones worth celebrating. But for this group of employees, they are literally putting the mile in milestone as truck drivers with our transportation and feed ingredients divisions. Join us in congratulating these drivers for hitting one, two or three million miles with Stutsmans. More
We’ve all been there: trying to catch a business before it closes. That’s exactly the story for a couple of our drivers last month. When they found out they couldn’t pick up their truck by closing time, they called on our August STRIVEr to help them out. By setting the bar higher and valuing collaboration, over-the-road driver Marty Watts didn’t hesitate to help them out.
Summer is always a busy time between vacations and county fairs. July was just that with the feed department. With many team members out, our July STRIVEr set the bar higher by learning a new position. Read more on how Shauna Gerlieb, feed ingredients customer service representative, took home the July honors.
While we recognize a new STRIVEr each month, this month’s hits just a little different. Our June STRIVEr is more than deserving of the honor not just for her efforts in her last month at Stutsman’s but for continuing to make a difference throughout her 52-year career here. Congratulations to Mary Escher, AR/AP manager for earning the June 2022 STRIVEr and her retirement! Read her nomination below.
Building a legacy takes time and leaving one is something to be recognized. For Mary Escher, building her legacy with Stutsman’s started in June 1970. Very few people can say their career exceeds half a century and even fewer can say they have spent their 52-year tenure at one company. More
