October Message from the CEO

Hello Fellow Industry Professionals,

Welcome to AOTMP® Insights, the resource for telecom, mobility, and IT technology management professionals across the globe.

There are more than 10 million of you, and as you know, we are looking to bring more and more of you together to help advance careers, advance departments, and bring more overall value to your respective organizations. To do that, we have created many ways to get more involved, all without spending a nickel. Here are a few of them.

• Industry Awards – for businesses, vendors, women in tech and association members. Nominations are open now. Check it out.
• Women in Tech Profiles – submit your story and read inspirational stories featured throughout the year
• Women in Tech Program – participate in monthly meetings on the first Wednesday of each month. Sign up today to stay informed.
• Best Practices – submit a best practice from your telecom, mobility, or IT environment or read others submitted by your peers. By the way, all best practices will be moving to the AOTMP® Insights section of our web site, to make them easier to find.
• Solution Profiles – featuring industry leading vendors that you may want to know. Check them out or submit a profile for your solution.
• Certified Vendors – see solutions where performance has been validated. You might want to add them to your own short list.
• People on the Go – keep the industry updated on your or colleagues’ changes, from promotions, to new positions, appointments and more.

These are just a few of the ways you can get involved. And we have more coming. Speaking for more, watch for our new complimentary AOTMP® association membership level. You will also see a new AOTMP® Community for non-association members and members alike. And a new mobile app will keep you up to date on the latest events and much more.

And finally, a big thank you to all of you who have reached out with comments and thoughts on our 8-part article series, The Telecom Expense Management Industry Has to Change. I believed it would catch a lot of attention, and it has far exceeded even my expectations. If you haven’t read what has been published so far, make sure you do, and please keep your comments and thoughts coming.

Until next time …

You get out of it what you put into it.
