I'm the Founder and CEO of Amnet. My career with computers started at the age of 10 when I took a BASIC programming class. I started Amnet in 1998 while working at Best Buy.

"Culture eats strategy for breakfast" is a phrase credited to Peter Drucker. It means that your best strategies will be destroyed by a bad culture. Good or bad, your company has a culture. Did you arrive at your culture intentionally, or did it just happen? For the team at Amnet, up until 2012, it just happened. We were growing, but within the organization, things were no longer working well, and it wasn't fun anymore. I wanted to quit my own company. The last straw was when our dysfunctional culture resulted in dropped balls that cost us one of our largest, and one of my favorite clients. We deserved to lose their business and I was just sick about it. Fast forward 8 years, Amnet was recently named a "Best Workplace" and one of the "Best Companies to Work For" in Colorado.

I'll be sharing Amnet's journey and methodology that made this turnaround possible. You will leave with not only ideas, but resources to immediately begin improving your team's culture.
