Growing up on a family farm in the outskirts of Independence, Mo., Lenexa Assistant City Attorney Steven Shrout learned how to care for animals, work with his hands and find solutions to problems. Summertime meant spending a lot of time outside doing chores like moving hay bales and scooping manure in the barn. … Watching his dad do the daily chores around the farm ingrained a work ethic that Steven has exercised in other areas of his life. “Having that role model just kind of instills in you that work ethic that maybe some of us might not see or may not experience in the same way,” he said. “I’ve applied that same work ethic into my education and have carried it into my work here at the City.”
