Richmond International Airport recently won the Change Management Program Award from Airports Council International-North America.
“This award is a testament to Richmond International Airport’s unwavering commitment to innovation and excellence in human resources change management,” said Perry J. Miller, CEO of the Capital Region Airport Commission.
The award, announced June 28 in Miami, recognizes RIC’s human resources programs that focus on tracking employee growth, providing development opportunities, and establishing community engagement initiatives. The airport’s approach has been noted as being at the forefront of building future leaders in the aviation industry.
ACI-NA President Kevin M. Burke praised RIC and San Francisco International Airport, which won the Overall Human Resources Program Award.
“Human resources play an integral role in establishing and implementing a positive workforce culture at airports,” said ACI-NA President and CEO Kevin M. Burke. “San Francisco International Airport and Richmond International Airport instituted industry-leading programs that invest in the people who run our airports. Their programs are vital to creating the next generation of aviation leaders, and I applaud them for their extraordinary work.”
Airport representatives at the ceremony included Uday Nethula, chief human resources officer and Basil Dosunmu, chief financial officer.
