Big, splashy
projects often get all the glory, with the preparatory and day-to-day work
going unnoticed.
Yet, that
behind-the-scenes work is key to the successful operation and expansion of our transportation
system.
Our Leadership
in Motion recipients for 2019 epitomize the hard work and hardworking people
that keep our system moving forward…often with little fanfare.
Maintenance,
repair, fundraising, planning, and leading behind the scenes often go
unnoticed, but not today.
With the 2019
COMPASS Leadership in Motion awards, we are honoring some of those unsung
heroes and projects.

While COMPASS’
Leadership in Motion awards honor projects and businesses/nonprofits, as well
as individuals, it’s important to remember that these are powered by people as
well – without the dedication of talented and hard-working individuals, those
successes would not be realized. Congratulations to all of those unsung heroes who make our valley what it is
today…and what it will be tomorrow.
