Whether you resist or embrace it, change happens. Resist,
and you may end up falling behind; yet embracing change can be a challenge.
In this issue of Business Solutions, we look at how change can be a positive thing
that often leads to growth.
First, on page 3, learn how companies are managing the recent trend of employees
wanting to use their own electronic devices at work. We’ll tell you What You Need
to Know About BYOD, including the potential benefits and pitfalls.
The Business Spotlight on pages 4 and 5 features Tallgrass Brewing Company, a
business that’s experiencing some exciting changes including a network upgrade,
a brand new brewhouse, and a brewpub opening soon.
On page 6, we suggest new ways of Dealing with the Dreaded Post-Vacation
Inbox, to ease your post-vacation transition back to work.
Finally, I’m pleased to share the exciting news that I’ve been given the Management
Achievement Award by NTCA. As you’ll read on page 7, this award has to do
with enabling innovation and change, and I’ve been honored to help improve such
opportunities within our community.
Change is always easier with support, and we’re here to support your business
efforts! Don’t hesitate to contact us to let us know how.
Sincerely,
Brian Thomason
