Employee Spotlight

Leadership Development

DFS worked with the Department of Human Resources and a professional trainer to provide workshops for technicians and managers centered on developing leadership, communication, and conflict resolution skills, while building trust and camaraderie within the team.

“I just wanted to send you a quick note to commend one of the facilities employees, Adam Lange. We often take our three-year-old down to the golf-hitting area on Alumni Park so he can chip and putt. One day, Adam showed up with a small wedge and a golf bag that he had found at a local shop. He said that while he was there, he thought about my son, and he decided to buy them as a gift because he loves how much my son loves golf. Needless to say, our son was elated to have his own golf bag just like Dad! He carries it around the house, as he refuses to put it down! Pepperdine is a special place for many reasons, but its people are right at the top. Adam is certainly one of them.”
