Earlier this week I was recognition by Computer World magazine as a Premier 100 IT Leader honoree. It goes without saying that I was humbled and honored by the recognition. At the same time, I'm challenged by it. The reality is that the recognition should go to the Information Technology department at Schumacher Group.
I've been exposed to a lot of professionals in the technology industry over the past 15 years. Hands down, what has been created at Schumacher Group is magical. These men and women work day in and day out to meet the needs of one of the fast growing companies in America.
My individual success is only possible because of the individuals who deploy solutions daily to improve the way healthcare is delivered by Schumacher Group. Without such an amazing group of individuals I would simply be a guy with a bunch of ideas in my head and no way to execute.
For those of you who don't know it, Schumacher Group's IT department has been recognized on multiple occasions for our work with Business Intelligence, Cloud computing, and Innovation in general. I've been humbled to work with some individuals within the department for almost 6 years now. Whether a new employee or a veteren member of the team, each bring a unique perspective, amazing influence, and critical thinking skills which are leveraged for the benifit of Schumacher Group as a whole.
While many IT professionals become complacent in their job role, members of Schumacher Group's IT department continue to look for new and creative opportunities to deliver business value. Regularly, I receive compliments on the team's customer service approach and willingness to get the job done regardless of obstacles. Internationally, we get recognized for our opinion on technology trends through multiple media sources.
Frequently, I encounter executives at major brand name companies who was rant about the poor service deliver of their IT team and the close mindedness of solutions. Each time I hear this, I proudly respond with... that's not how we approach IT as Schumacher Group. We view technology as a strategic component of our mission. Ultimately, everyone knows that the solution deployed within our department needs to have a positive impact on how we provide healthcare to 3.5 million patients annually.
I'd also be kidding myself if I were not to recognize that what sets Schumacher Group's IT strategy apart from other companies is the technology department's solid alignment with our primary customers, employees and clinical providers who encounter the solutions we deploy. Without the tremendous executive support we get directly from Dr. Schumacher and the C-Suite we would not be able to deliver half of what we deliver.
Words can't express how appreciative I am to be blessed to work with such amazing people. The ComputerWorld Premier 100 IT Leaders recognition should list all members of the Schumacher Group IT team rather than my name.
