LAUGHLIN AIR FORCE BASE, Texas -- Unit and job title: 47th Flying Training Wing equal opportunity NCO in charge
Why she XLed: Staff Sgt. Sarah Hahn resolved three separate complaints, working with the members involved, she provided alternatives that lead to the initial allegations being dropped and ultimately avoiding a collective 540 days of probation. Hahn led a discriminatory allegation inquiry, interviewing eight people and compiling it into a 15-page report that unsubstantiated the claims, closing that case. She also taught two human relations courses, covering everything from stereotypes, prejudices and harassment, educating Laughlin’s Airmen on do’s and don’ts in the workplace. Hahn revamped the quarterly report process, scrubbing eight prior submissions and fixing 107 discrepancies, eliminating a two-year backlog. Hahn is also sought after when it comes to problem solving, advising first sergeants and providing advice that improved hostile work environments.
