Terry Claussen – Boss of the Quarter
Terry Claussen – 2020 4th Quarter Boss of the Quarter
Nominated by Stacey Mahlke
On behalf of the employees of Claussen’s Clothing Store in LeMars,
we would like to honor Terry Claussen as the LeMars Area
Chamber of Commerce 2020 4th Quarter Boss of the Quarter.
Terry Claussen owns Claussen's Clothing Store and has been a
dedicated businessperson for over 40 years in the retail business,
30 of those right here in LeMars.
Terry has been an outstanding boss and leader for many
employees throughout the many years. When you work for Terry,
you are not just another employee. He has a special way of
making you feel like you are a part of his family.
They say when you love your job it does not feel like work and for
me and several others, that is exactly the case. I truly look
forward to going to work every day.
Terry is laid back, open minded, and always lends an ear when
needed. He gives direction without being "bossy" and is always
interested in listening to other points of view.
Terry deserves recognition for a job well done this year and every
year. Thank you for being the best boss ever!
For these reasons we choose to salute Terry Claussen with the LeMars Area Chamber of Commerce 4th Quarter Boss of the
Quarter award.
Congratulations!
