Ben Huber, Insight FS Retail Division Manager, is the recipient of the 2024 CCA CEO Outstanding Communicator Award.
This award is presented annually by the Cooperative Communicators Association. It recognizes a cooperative leader’s commitment to open communications as an integral part of an effective management style.
Insight FS, a part of the GROWMARK system, is headquartered in Jefferson, Wisconsin. It serves patrons in Wisconsin and Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.
During the recent CCA Institute in Des Moines, Huber was acknowledged as the 28th recipient of this award. During the ceremony, Huber was recognized for his commitment to fostering effective communication strategies within Insight FS.
In his acceptance speech, Huber attributed the achievement to the collective efforts of the Insight FS team.
“Communication is a team sport,” remarked Huber. “This award is a testament to the dedication and talent of our entire team. Together, we are driving meaningful change and innovation across the organization.”
In addition, Insight FS’s communications team, Angie Greving and Katie Oehm, received first place in the annual CCA Communications Contest’s Miscellaneous Promotional category for their innovative Hat Forge tradeshow booth at the 2023 Wisconsin Farm Tech Show. The booth’s unique “hat-making” experience captured the attention of attendees, vendors, and the contest judges. One judge said, “Everyone is looking for the ‘it’ item at tradeshows and I have to imagine that this was a huge hit.”
