Employee Appreciation & Recognition at AvePoint

At AvePoint, we love celebrating our hardworking, talented employees, and our People Recognition program is just one of the ways we can acknowledge them on a global stage! AvePoint’s People Recognition program is celebrated quarterly during our global town hall meetings, and we’re planning to highlight the winners in this reoccurring blog post.

We accept nominations all year, and we encourage you to nominate anyone who embodies our core values of Agility, Passion, and Teamwork!

Now let’s meet our 6 winners from Q2 and Q3 of 2019:

Miho Ingaki
Manager of Global Delivery, Tokyo
Recognized for Agility: 2019 Q2

Miho’s drive and positive energy help to ensure the Customers’ success in project delivery and deployment shows strong agility!

What’s something you would always see on Miho’s desk?
Pineapple-related things, candies, souvenirs from some of our global offices, plants (that are usually browning), and lots of Post-It notes – her desk resembles a Kanban board.

 

Abdallah Amonette
Technical Support Engineer, Tier 1, Richmond
Recognized for Passion: 2019 Q2

Abdallah has been a high performer on the Support Team by consistently closing over 80 cases a month. An exceptional amount of work and great efficiency goes into an achievement like Abdallah’s.

What keeps Abdallah busy outside of the office?
