Employee Suggestions and Ideas “Campus Life Class Awards recognized a diverse group of employees across all levels [from] support through management.” “There is little or no use of rewards/recognition in our department. We desperately need it.” “The head of my department seems to expect us to communicate with [him/her], but [he/she] often neglects to tell us information.” “Staff development and training extremely limited.”

Lessons learned….so far Communication is key. Appointment of Task Force chairs was not inclusive. Some departments will be focus groups The recommendations must fit the specific needs of our division.
