Intentional Kindness

By |2024-03-05T13:21:07-05:00March 12th, 2024|

No act of kindness is ever wasted, no matter how small.  --Aesop Kindness is not necessarily something one would expect a business to promote.  Not only is it one of the company’s operating principles, but netlogx has seen fit to highlight it this year by challenging team members to do something kind for [...]

Gratitude Gifts

By |2022-08-25T09:41:23-04:00August 25th, 2022|

Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it. ~ William Arthur Ward As gratitude is the theme at netlogx this year, I want to say “thank you, netlogx” for highlighting this core value.  My mother raised me to say please and thank you as a part of [...]

My Great Good Fortune

So often in life, things you regard as an impediment turn out to be great good fortune.  – Ruth Bader Ginsburg Life doesn’t always go according to plans. Mine certainly hasn’t.  A divorce that left me with a young daughter to raise alone was the first great impediment I encountered. Realizing I needed [...]

Planting Positivity

By |2021-09-16T12:13:52-04:00November 2nd, 2021|

When given the wellbeing initiative challenge this year by netlogx to do something positive for ourselves, somebody else or our community, I wanted to do something that would have a longer lasting impact than, say, taking a one-week vacation. While a trip away could certainly have a positive impact by providing a needed break [...]

Buckets of Patience

By |2022-09-11T15:20:02-04:00January 9th, 2020|

At the beginning of 2019 netlogx handed each employee a small silver bucket and challenged each person to complete something on their bucket list.  To assist in doing so, the company generously provided a financial bonus to help the dreams become a reality. Many of my co-workers chose travel as their bucket list item, and [...]

Don’t Be Complacent About Your Compliance

By |2022-09-06T16:25:58-04:00May 23rd, 2018|

Say the word “compliance” and oftentimes it generates groans and eye rolls.  Compliance is considered a necessary evil by many.  It’s not that people are against doing the right thing.  It’s because compliance is perceived as time consuming and costly in terms of non-billable resources.   As the compliance manager for netlogx, a consulting services company [...]

Memorial Day

Memorial Day was established by General John A. Logan, to remember the soldiers and sailors who died in the Civil War.  It was first celebrated on May 30, 1868, at Arlington National Cemetery. “We do not know one promise these men made, one pledge they gave, one word they spoke; but we do know they [...]

Sitting Tall in the Saddle

By |2022-09-05T15:04:58-04:00April 6th, 2017|

Growing up I was shy and had a decided lack of self-confidence.  I was an honor roll student and would know the answers in class but it was painful to be called upon by the teacher or have to give speeches in school.  Having any attention drawn to me would cause an immediate reaction of [...]

Who’s Teaching Who?

By |2022-09-05T13:49:17-04:00October 8th, 2015|

This past summer I was asked to manage the intern program.  I was glad to do so; one intern – no problem.  Then the company decided to hire four interns for the summer.   My enthusiasm started to waver a bit.  Sounded like a lot more time and effort involved and, oh my, they were all [...]
