Annika joined our US operations in early 2019, tasked with supporting our new management and production teams as we embarked on a wholesale review of our business. By standardizing the methodology used across our multiple sites, Annika was directly involved in the decisions and planning that saw a consolidation of our US graphics operations and the off-shoring of non-critical functions, that delivered on the mutual goals of improved customer service and lowered costs. It’s important to include that 2 of the 3 years (Annika worked in the US) were impacted by COVID restrictions, forcing a change in her approach as she mentored, trained and managed people across multiple sites, all while working remotely. Annika formed strong bonds with management, technical and customer service team members, quickly becoming the go-to person to get involved when we were challenged most. She adapted well to the obstacles presented, and I would recommend her to any employer.
