Every quarter, Descartes’ Employee Excellence and Innovation award is presented to a deserving Descartes employee. Based on peer nominations, the award recognizes Descartes employees for their contributions in helping to make Descartes’ customers, partners, and fellow employees successful. Eligible Descartes employees must have demonstrated ‘Excellence’ by performing their job with integrity and to the highest professional standards, exceeding expectations while achieving exceptional results for external and/or internal stakeholders and ‘Innovation’ by sharing valuable ideas to develop new or better processes, tools, methods, systems, products or services in support of Descartes’ mission.
I’m pleased to announce Descartes’ Excellence and Innovation award winner for the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 is Andreas Habenicht, Team Lead – Support, from our office in Leipzig, Germany. Andreas joined us as part of the Descartes pixi* acquisition and has worked tirelessly to implement and improve a tool that provides visibility into Descartes’ global customer support portal while increasing communication and collaboration for internal teams that support our customers.
