They say it takes a new employee 90 days to get fully settled in an organization. Up until this point they are familiarizing themselves with the company, the culture, job expectations, and what they will need to be successful in their new role. I became president of ComputerCare at the beginning of September, so my 90 days are officially up, and I wanted to share what I have learned so far…
ComputerCare has an amazing foundation. Leadership changes often happen during times of uncertainty, where the main focus turns to figuring out how to pick up the pieces of those who came before. I was fortunate to be handed a company where my only concern is forward growth, and seeing just how far we can get.
One thing I say without hesitation is that we have fabulous employees. Our workforce is diverse, skilled, and dedicated to the success of the company. I have been humbled every day by how quickly they have accepted me in my new position, and supported me as I start to make my version of our roadmap for the future.
We are good at what we do. Of course we all have those difficult days, and no one is perfect, but I get the privilege of hearing positive feedback from our customers on a regular basis. I never get tired of walking by our Apple Premium Service Provider plaque that hangs on the wall at HQ, knowing that it symbolizes both technical and customer service excellence.
I’m excited for 2017, and energized by the opportunity to take ComputerCare’s key strengths, and develop a strategy that will propel us forward into our next stages of growth. There is a lot of work ahead, but I’m very proud to be at the helm.
Happy Holidays!
