Nov 07 Manager of the Month
Brenda Hill
76 MXW/QPQA
The winner of the TMA November Manager of the
Month is Brenda Hill. Ms. Hill personifies the core
value of “Service Before Self.”
In her first
assignment with a Maintenance Quality Office, she
hit the ground running, making an immediate and
invaluable impact on the quality standard across
the 76th Maintenance Wing. She drove the Wing to
an all-time high Quality Assurance Pass rate of 95%
for FY07-2. This set a benchmark for the Wing.
Brenda expertly manages the OC-ALC Foreign
Object Damage (FOD) Program for the Center.
Under her leadership, the program has risen to new
heights, achieving and sustaining the best FOD rate
among the three ALCs. Brenda is an exceptional
supervisor who constantly mentors her staff and
encourages them to succeed on their own. These
qualities were directly reflected in her Quality
Analysis Team’s selection as an "Outstanding
Team" by the AFMC IG during the UCI. She also
excels as the NSPS and GS Appraisal monitor for 76
MXW/QP. She ensured all mid-term feedbacks and
close-out appraisals were completed on time, and
quality checked each appraisal prior to submission.
Community-minded, Brenda participated in the
Dallas Breast Cancer 3-Day, 60-mile walk,
personally raising over $4,000 for the Susan G.
Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. She is also a
member of the Tinker Management Association and
Logistics Officers Association.
