Top performing Postal Customer Council (PCC) leaders and groups were recognized at a recent Postal Service Headquarters ceremony where individual mailing customers, postal employees and PCCs representing members nationwide were honored for their innovation, communication, and dedication to growing the PCC Network. As one of the foremost customer communication channels of the Postal Service, PCCs represent a way to network, collaborate and build mail knowledge and growth.

A total of 27 Leadership Award winners in 11 different categories were congratulated by the Postmaster General and her senior Executive Leadership Team for their outstanding work in the mailing and shipping industry.

The 2017 PCC of the Year Large Market Award was awarded to the Greater Charlotte PCC. The Greater Charlotte PCC was recognized for using best practices to communicate and engage members through engaging events, educational seminars, and their PCC website.

The PCC used local postmasters and current PCC members to recruit new PCC members. The PCC also hosted the Cap Metro Area Focus Group meeting in May 2016. The PCC also hosts an annual Carolina Postal Forum, by connecting with other PCCs. One of the key results of the PCC’s hard work was an increase in membership.
