“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,” said vice president of marketing, David Carrithers who was in attendance of the awards dinner. “At the same time to realize that Centennial is doing the same things as a Northrop Grumman or Marriot Corporation was amazing.”
