I’m very proud to have been named a top 10 Icon Leader of 2024 by Industry Chronicle Magazine. It’s no doubt because of the 40 year anniversary of HMS Software which I lead and the 30 year anniversary of the TimeControl timesheet system we created to which we owe so much of our success.
The award is meaningless without acknowledging that any leader isn’t a leader unless he or she has a team to lead. The team at HMS Software is remarkable. It is humbling to think that many of these people have dedicated their career to HMS. We have 3 staff members who have been with the company over 30 years. That’s an entire career span. They stay I think because they are proud of the work they do and they can see the difference it makes.
You can read the article in its entirety at: https://www.theindustrychronicle.com/awards/Top-10-Iconic-Leaders-of-2024-Chris-Vandersluis/. If you do, you’ll see it’s very much not about me at all. It’s about those remarkable team members. To them, to our clients, our partners, our colleagues and our family, I say a heartfelt “Thank you” for this year and all the years so far.
We are far from done but hopefully the next article about us is more about TimeControl and a bit less about my anniversaries!
