Shannon Dauzat

Programmer/Analyst

April 1, 2022

Congratulations to Shannon Dauzat, Programmer/Analyst at DIS-TRAN Packaged Substations. Shannon was nominated by his supervisor for always bringing a can-do mentality to the team and rising to the challenges that come from handling Epicor. Shannon always keeps a good attitude and doesn’t shy away from the issues or struggles he encounters – rather, Shannon charges the storm. His teammates say that if it wasn’t for Shannon, the team would struggle to get everything done through the help of consultants – limiting DIS-TRAN Packaged Substations’ agility to quickly serve its customers and teams.

February 2022 Culture Champion

Robert is a great example of our values in action! As St. Jude’s Heroes, he and his son Landon raise funds for the children’s cancer research center and the families receiving treatment there in honor of his late wife, Monica, who passed away from cancer. Robert champions the phrase “rise to the challenge,” and he focuses on building lasting relationships and supporting his team to make sure we can all win together both in the community and across the Crest Family.
