Our VP of Human Resource, Richard (Rick) Wilson was named as a 2010 Honoree by the HR Leadership Awards of Greater Washington on June 15th. During his tenure at Centennial, Rick has reduced voluntary employee turnover and expanded employee training programs and benefits packages believing that employees are the differentiator between good companies and great companies.
Since 2001, the HR Leadership Awards of Greater Washington have honored HR executives for outstanding contributions to their organizations and to the field of human resource management through organizational leadership, risk taking, innovation, vision and communication, community service and ethics.
I attended the awards dinner and I thought it was great to hear about all the exciting people development efforts the leading companies in the U.S. are carrying out, like training and development efforts, wellness programs, pay for performance, alignment of the organization with goals, and session planning. At the same time to realize that Centennial is doing the same things as a Northrop Grumman or Marriott Corporation was amazing.
Rick Wilson was nominated based on his HR leadership skills and the outstanding effort at alignment between the employees and the mission of the business. Rick has positively impacted the long term culture of Centennial and it was great to see him honored at this event.
