Time flies when you're an incredible leader ⏱️ Thanks @Edwin Robles for everything you do!
Today marks my ten-year work anniversary at Cengage Group. 👏 Over the years, the opportunity to break away from the status quo and try new things has been truly invaluable. Cengage has provided me the space to innovate which has made the last decade incredibly fulfilling. As I reflect on this milestone, I think back on the accomplishments I’m most proud of: 💠 Building our Sales Learning & Development program – to this day, it's a driving force for salesforce retention and professional development. I began my journey in Sales, so this achievement has a special place in my heart. 💠Transforming our Sales organization and aligning Marketing to create a unified go-to-market motion – this work has empowered our customer-facing roles and has led to faster decision making and deeper connections with our customers. 💠Returning our US Higher Ed business to growth. This hasn’t been easy, but I'm incredibly proud of our team and the work they put forward to make this happen. When you are intentional, focused, and committed, great things happen. 💠And finally, being present for the launch of Cengage Unlimited – a game-changer that completely transformed our approach to student affordability. In my ten years at Cengage, I’ve come to understand the importance of surrounding myself with exceptionally talented people. The best teams thrive no matter the circumstances, and I’m proud to say that the people I’ve worked with over the years embrace this mentality with an unwavering optimism. I’ve learned so much along the way and I’ll leave you with the following: 1️⃣ Surround yourself with the right people – those who inspire, challenge, and uplift you and their teams. 2️⃣ Never lose sight of the customer. It’s the best way to learn about your business, and it will make your work more meaningful and enjoyable. 3️⃣ Have fun and love what you do. Thankful for these first 10 years. Looking forward to the next. 🌟 #WorkAnniversary #Reflection #Cengage #EdTechLeader
