FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Black Hills Energy CEO Linn Evans recently awarded Amanda Anderson, utility construction supervisor in Fayetteville, with the CEO Summit Award, the company’s highest honor.
Anderson of Springdale has worked at Black Hills Energy for 13 years in several roles. She is one of only six honorees receiving this year’s distinction that acknowledges superior professional achievement and community service while supporting the development of a culture that recognizes performance, reinforces company values and standards, and promotes teamwork.
“The CEO Award recognizes employees who exemplify our mission, vision and values,” Evans said. “This year’s recipients exhibit the attributes we hope to cultivate throughout our organization: They’re values-driven, generous with their time, strong in character and focused on making life better for our customers and our communities.”
Anderson is a community ambassador for Black Hills Energy and has volunteered this year for the United Way of Northwest Arkansas; SOAR Afterschool Program; Hogeye Marathon; and the Bentonville, Rogers-Lowell and Springdale chambers of commerce. She is currently participating in the Leadership Springdale program.
Evans presented the award and selected this year’s honorees from over 60 peer-nominated employees among the company’s approximately 3,000 employees.
