February Leadership Update

CHAT GPT
Kyle Simmons joined for a group discussion about ChatGPT and the future of AI. While we believe AI won’t impact our business for a while, it does lead us to think about:

• What are low-hanging opportunities to automate or reduce the mindless activities in our workflow?
• If this were to integrate with our Microsoft systems (email, outlook, SharePoint), are we storing data and information to be easily accessible to use this technology?

 
Overall, no decisions were made on this topic. We will continue to talk as a leadership team and with our department leaders about the questions above. Kyle Simmons will continue to be a key partner with business units in conceptualizing ideas and creating solutions to increase operational efficiency.

JUNETEENTH
We discussed how we can observe Juneteenth at CG. This discussion is in response to the recent recognition of Juneteenth as a state and federal holiday. As a company, we believe in celebrating and promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion in all aspects of our business, and we are thrilled to announce an additional floating cultural holiday to our list of paid holidays. Watch for more information from Alicia Williams regarding this new paid holiday.
