This leader has the aptitude, desire to grow, and overall potential that make him/her a great DUSON staff member.

Only Staff are encouraged to nominate a fellow staff member for the Peer to Peer Award which is presented to the DUSON staff member who fosters a sense of community, serves as a positive influence, and goes above and beyond to actively engage in creating outstanding levels of service to other staff members within DUSON. This person has been identified by his or her peers to be exceptional, by making careful, honest, considerate decisions, and leading by example in their professional interactions.
