The Christmas Season has been extra special for Glen de Mateo and Benjamin Maraño, an administrative staff and a faculty member, as both were adjudge winners in the STI Naga’s Search for the Employee and Faculty of the Year.
The two garnered the most number of points after tallying the votes from the students and their co-employees thus earned them the prestigious award.
Serving as a cashier for over a year now, Glen de Mateo’s dedication to his job did not go unnoticed. Apart from the collected student’s votes, his hold on the prize was further bolstered by the overwhelming nomination from both the faculty and staff. The award came as a surprise admits the soon-to-be father. His praise for his colleague’s efforts in the performance of their duties was his source of enthusiasm to give the best and be the best.
Benjamin Maraño has been with STI Naga for almost half a decade as a part-time faculty member handling CET programs. His story is a perfect example of how one can triumph over physical difficulties. He never let his challenged stride get in the way of imparting knowledge to his students. His difficulty has been his constant motivation to take a step further for his students and the Institution.
More than the recognition, the prestige and the honor of this award, the passion for perfection should be the core motivation of anyone aspiring for this award. STI Naga will make this an annual event to encourage and challenge each employee to give out the best in the name of genuine service. The eyes should not be on the prize but rather on how well we have done our best each petty task we perform every day. The biggest prize comes from the compounded little things we do.
