7Summits Celebrates Our 2020 Sherpas of the Year!
7Summits wrapped up another successful expedition in 2020, reaching the Connected Future with a record-setting, award-winning year. The company overcame the uncertainties of the pandemic to reach new heights in both revenue and headcount, and was recognized by organizations like ISG, Best and Brightest, the Inc. 5000 and the Milwaukee Business Journal for innovation, growth and being a top workplace.
After kicking off 2020 by relocating our headquarters to Milwaukee’s Third Ward, we went one step further and launched our 2021 expedition by announcing that 7Summits is now an IBM Company. As we prepare for the excitement that this new journey has in store, we took the time to celebrate the incredible employees (we call them Sherpas) who made our success possible and have us positioned to maintain our ascent. At our annual Winter Team Day, which took place virtually this year, we announced the eight “Sherpas of the Year” for 2020.
The honorees represent each of the company’s core competency groups, with one award going to the overall Sherpa of the Year. Those who were honored were nominated by management and then chosen by a panel of executives. Winners are determined based on their contributions to the success of our customers in 2020, willingness to go above and beyond expectations, and embodiment of 7Summits’ core values.
