"Garage Team" Nominated for Blesher Award



Dave Hotaling, Steve White, and John Wilber were nominated by Kelly Gardepe for going “above and beyond” in making the internships of Fred and Francis successful. Kelly wrote that these men deserved this recognition by demonstrating the 6 Unifying Principles of The Arc of Delaware County:

Those We Serve Come First: They would stop what they were doing to help Fred or to answer questions. They always made his training their top priority.

Commit to Excellence: They would change their work days to accommodate their (Fred and Francis’s) appointments and changed their own schedules to accommodate their training.

Be Dedicated: They would always shuffle work around to make sure there was always something for them to do and learn.

Employee Satisfaction: They treated Fred and Francis as equals and made them a part of the garage team.

Communicate Effectively: They communicated effectively by repeating things or adjusting terminology to ensure they were getting the best training.

Be Innovative: They had a big part in setting up both internships. They would help with the scheduling and creating the internship as a whole.


Congratulations to Dave, John, and Steve!
