Diamond Vogel hosted a stop for the 2019 Cyclone Tailgate Tour on Tuesday, May 14. Employees, families, and friends were able to meet and interact with various Iowa State head coaches including Matt Campbell (Football), Steve Prohm (Men’s Basketball), Bill Fennelly (Women’s Basketball), Christy Johnson-Lynch (Volleyball), and Kevin Dresser (Wrestling), as well as Director of Athletics, Jamie Pollard and the Voice of the Cyclones, John Walters.
Before the meet and greets, there was a short management talk with the coaches at the Corporate Tech Center, which included topics of leadership and growth in communities. Three focuses were recruiting lifelong learners, retaining the great ones, and developing employees to reach their full potential by serving others and providing them the tools they need. There was also a brief question and answer session for the coaches.
After the session, employees were able to enjoy the beautiful weather while meeting the coaches and receiving their autograph on a poster. Refreshments and Iowa State door prizes were also provided. Diamond Vogel gave a small token of appreciation to each coach – a Diamond Vogel coffee mug and some Dutch candies that reflect our heritage.
