Christopher Lofstedt

The Corporate Source

Christopher Lofstedt is nominated for the Evelyne Villines Award. In December 2015, Lofstedt started as a part-time mail clerk on the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Mail & Courier services contract with The Corporate Source. For the past ten years, his growth, leadership, and impact have transformed team culture and operational performance. Today, Lofstedt oversees mail services and courier operations as a team lead at three major CBP locations in New York, supervising a team of seven. Under his leadership, employees perform better and become stronger advocates for themselves. Lofstedt positively impacted a long-tenured employee who had become disengaged after 20 years, helping him feel valued, energized, and willing to support teammates. He coached another employee through performance challenges by providing training, consistent feedback, and tailoring his approach to the employee’s needs. The employee’s confidence grew, anxiety decreased, and performance significantly improved.
