On August 5th, 2015 the U.S. Postal Service recognized 24 Postal Customer Councils (PCCs) – in eight award categories – for their achievements and creativity in communication, leadership, membership growth, innovation and educational program offerings.
As part of the festivities, the award finalists assembled at Postal Headquarters where they participated in roundtable discussions with other awards finalists, the Postmaster General (PMG), Deputy Postmaster General (DPMG), Chief Operating Officer (COO) and other officers. They shared key strategies and best practices for education, communication, collaboration and outreach.
The awards presentation followed the roundtable discussion where the PMG, DPMG, and COO presented the awards.
With more than 150 active PCCs across the country, achieving this level of recognition is commendable.
