(Madison, Ind.) - Madison Correctional Facilities Warden Jan Davis received the Extraordinary Leader Award.

“Extraordinary leaders possess three traits that set them apart: will, fortitude, and self-efficacy,” said the Indiana Department of Corrections.

Executive Director of Staff Training and Development, Nancy Riley, presented this award on the behalf of the IDOC Commissioner Rob Carter.

"Warden Davis, all three of these traits describe how you have handled yourself not only during this pandemic but also during your whole career with the department.  You have been a great leader, mentor, and friend to all staff in the department,” said Riley.

Warden Davis has worked for the Indiana Department of Corrections for 37 years. She has held many titles including Correctional Officer, Counselor, Case Manager, and Administrative Assistant.

In 2006 she was promoted to Warden of the Henryville Correctional Facility and was then transferred to Madison Correctional as Warden in 2007.

"This award is not just for me, but also the staff at this facility.  I have an awesome team who continues to stay positive through the difficult times and keeps the offenders positive when things are uncertain.  I would not have received this award without my staff behind me,” stated Warden Davis.
