UH DINING SERVICES MANAGERS RECOGNIZED FOR LEADERSHIP
On July 13,
2011 the team at UH Dining Services
(UHDS) was recognized for
outstanding leadership and
successful project completion by
leaders from ARAMARK, UH Dining�s
parent company.
ARAMARK awarded the honors based on
THRIVE, a leadership program in
place at each location. THRIVE
encourages all employees to be
Thoughtful, Heartfelt, Results
Driven, Innovative, Valued &
Trusted, and Engaged. At the annual
THRIVE summit this summer, both the
entire UHDS team and several
individual managers were recognized
for their alignment with these
ideals and contributions to both the
company and their respective
campuses.
The entire UHDS team won the gold
award for successfully opening the
33,000 sq. ft. Fresh Food Company
with a turnaround time of only 91
days. The team pulled together to
ensure that the facility was
finished in time for the new
academic year and that the food
quality and level of customer
service far exceeded the
expectations of both the
restaurant�s patrons and
upper-management.
Misty Pierce, Unit Marketing Manager
with UHDS, won the silver award for
greatly expanding the meal plan
program across campus and for
working diligently to offer the
benefits of having a meal plan to
students living in nearby apartment
complexes as well as those commuting
from further away. She not only
increased meal plan participation
across campus but also played a key
role in increasing customer
satisfaction with the meal plan
program.
Dawn Rose, Food Service Director at
UH Victoria, won the bronze award
for single-handedly opening the very
first dining hall on the UHV campus
in its brand new residence hall.
Rose delivered a fulfilling
experience to the first residential
class on the UHV campus and
continues to produce a wonderful
product for the students, faculty
and staff who had never before been
able to enjoy such a meal on campus.
�I would like to congratulate Dawn,
Misty and the entire UH team on
their THRIVE awards for 2011,� said
UHDS District Manager Tony Urso.
�They have all achieved such great
accomplishments, and it�s a
privilege and an honor to be a part
of this dynamic group of people.�
