Among the criteria we consider is how well the person demonstrates the four E’s of leadership – their overall energy, how they energize others, how they have the edge to make tough decisions, and how well they execute their plans and adjust their sails.

During Stacey’s career with Work Opportunities Unlimited (WOU), she started as a Career Resource Specialist, was promoted to Director, and also has helped set up services in a new state (Maryland). As the Director for Recruiting, her current role is one that impacts every team member. During Covid, Stacey assisted our other division and did such an amazing job no one wanted her to leave when she was called back to WOU! Stacey, thank you for helping us create new opportunities for success in the workplace, every day!
