DESCRIPTION
The purpose of the TEAM ACHIEVEMENT award is to recognize and reward teams who
work toward a common goal. Together, these individuals demonstrate commitment to
success through excellent and consistent performance.
What’s a team? Teams must consist of two to 12 members. Nominations for crossdepartmental teams are encouraged (i.e., members don’t all have to be from the same
department). What is most important to the selection panel is that the nomination
demonstrates the active participation of each and every team member towards the
achievement of common goals.
