Each year one or two teammates who best exemplify all of the Core Values are named Teammates of the Year. The 2016 City of Morgan Hill Teammates of the Year are Richard Guzman, Utility Worker I and Hilary Holeman, Administrative Analyst. Some of the comments peers shared about Richard are “Richard is valued and respected, knowledgeable and reliable, kind, considerate and humble. He is always willing to help at any hour of the day with a positive attitude. He puts 200% effort in and always does quality work. He brings hidden value to customers in ways they will never see. We along with our residents, are truly luck to have such a dedicated person on our team. He must sleep with his boots on.” Teammates shared about Hilary, “Hilary is known for her positive approach and there is always a smile on her face. No matter the situation, challenge, or opportunity she has a ‘can do’ attitude. You can always go to her for help or to bounce some ideas around. If she doesn’t have an answer, if she can’t find something, she will build it! She is amazing and is on everyone’s team. She lives the definition of teamwork every day because she is collaborative, team oriented, supportive, open minded, creative, fun and inspiring!” Remember to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle!
