ITD's MVPs

Besides verbal recognition, ITD employees have another avenue to share their appreciation for the assistance and guidance of co-workers. The department's MVP cards, which are found through the HR site on SharePoint, can play an important role in fostering a sense of appreciation, which is an essential component of job satisfaction.

If you have VPN accerss, this link will send you directly to the MVP Card site.

The goal here is to make that appreciation more visible, and to remind employees that this resource exists and can be an important morale-booster.

Here are the MVP cards posted recently:
