Kenny Johnson
FedEx Office lead consultant - 6 years
Fruitvale, California
Kenny Johnson is more than a lead consultant at the FedEx Office in Fruitvale. He is known in his community as a familiar face to his reoccurring customers, and he knows the importance of connecting with everyone who walks into the store. He views connection an essential part of his role and credits his background as a coach and children’s center director with teaching him this
important skillset.
“I consider myself to be a gregarious person who likes to strongly interact with customers. My nickname is the “Pastor,” a man of faith who they can talk to about things. People come in just to have conversations. It’s a typical day for me.”
German Campos
Cold chain team lead - 8 years
Miami, Florida
It’s all about following the process at the FedEx Miami cold chain facility, says team lead German Campos. The facility is responsible for a variety of materials that require temperature-controlled shipping—items such as flowers, fish, and medication—and German ensures every task is done with precision so his team meets their inspection deadlines.
"Cold chain is a very precise job. I ensure my team is aware of what they’re doing, and I always tell them ‘let’s do it right the first time.’ If they see that you are taking care of them, they’re going to give you 100 percent.”
