“For over 11 years, we’ve recognized outstanding leaders in the workplace. What makes this award unique is that nominations come from the leader’s direct reports,” says Reid Bates, owner of Express Employment Professionals.
“In the lab of actual workplaces, around 15 students from Saint Martin’s University examined a dozen finalists to uncover what makes these bosses excel in leading their teams. The student’s analysis is incorporated into the selection process for the 2021 Boss of the Year Awards.”
All six individuals will be recognized at the Thurston Chamber’s Forum on Wednesday, Dec. 8 at the Olympia Hotel at Capital Lake, 2300 Evergreen Park Dr. SW. Forum includes lunch, and the cost is $25 for members and $30 for non-members prepaid, or $30 for members and $35 non-members who pay day of the event.
