To recognize airport employees who truly stand out as extraordinary, we hold a quarterly PDX People Customer Service Awards. The winners in each category – along with their managers and members of our volunteer working committee – are invited to attend the event in person while it's live-streamed on Facebook.

To watch, head to the PDX Facebook page on Tuesday, July. 25, at noon. As you know, the PDX People core values are Knowledgeable, Friendly and Respectful. Our guest speakers at this event will highlight each of these values: Abby Carey, Concessions Development Manager with the Port of Portland, will share knowledge about the exciting new businesses opening at PDX in the future; Kathy Loter, Program Director of the Portland Area Canine Therapy Teams with DoveLewis Veterinary Hospital, will talk about how their program helps make PDX a friendly place; and Joyce DeMonnin, former Communications Manager with AARP and AARM Volunteer, will share communication strategies to demonstrate respectful service, particularly while communicating with older adults.
