Your 2008 Brew City HDI Technology Fair team

Thanks for a GREAT 2008 - Here’s looking forward to a fine 2009!

Season’s greetings from Phil Gerbyshak, your friendly Brew City HDI president. Thank you for a GREAT 2008! This year brought us a multitude of wonder, from a kick-off event with almost 100 people featuring the incomparable Kirk Weisler where we got inspired to be readers and leaders, to learning from PC Pro Schools, Pat Albright, WCTC, We Energies, Runzheimer, and coming up in December, Manpower for our 2nd annual HDI Analyst of the Year competition.

Our chapter was honored as a platinum chapter from HDI Global, meaning we are doing a great job of serving your needs as members of the organization and living up to our promise of adding value to the IT service and support professionals of the southeastern Wisconsin area.

With your help, 2009 is going to be just fine! But we do need your help. Here’s 3 ways you can help make 2009 an even bigger success:

1) Bring a guest to every meeting - You know the value of your local chapter, so invite a friend, colleague, co-worker or direct report to the meeting. Share the value with them, and our meetings will be even better.

2) Incorporate the HDI AOY requirements into your team’s goals for 2009, and start saving those wonderful emails your team gets from customers letting them know how wonderful they are. Then nominate your top 2 analysts so they know how much you appreciate them. In these difficult economic times, when you can’t always give folks the raise or bonus they deserve, recognizing them in a specific, meaningful way is a GREAT way to say thanks!

3) Tell us what you want to see. Is it more help desk tours, more HDI or ITIL training, more keynote speakers, soft skills training, or something else? Let your officers know what we can do to make the next 12 months more meaningful for YOU!

I appreciate your continued support, and am proud to serve you as president. If you ever have any feedback about our organization, please call me at 414-298-7445 (cell 414-640-7445) or e-mail me at president@brewcityhdi.com and I will be delighted to talk to you!

Best wishes to you and yours this holiday season,
Phil Gerbyshak
President, Brew City HDI
Midwest Regional Director, HDI Global

You are cordially invited to attend the Brew City HDI end of the year celebration. We will enjoy an evening of fun and fellowship as we toast to the Analyst of the Year nominees and crown our winner. We look forward to celebrating with you!
