It’s Thankful Thursday, and . . . .

We’re thankful for OUTSTANDING Supervisors!

You know the ones we’re talking about. . . they’re all about the team and do their best to make work a great place to be. They make sure the job gets done well, but they also get that you have a life outside of work that sometimes requires flexibility. They get outstanding results while treating everyone with dignity, respect and integrity.

We can’t clone ‘em, but we CAN recognize them for the role they play in making MSU a great place to work. Yes, there’s an award for Spartans like that and over the last decade, the following individuals have been recognized for their outstanding efforts to be good supervisors:
