Good afternoon,
I want to dedicate this week’s OE update to Senior Transformation Manager Candace Reynolds for her remarkable 20 years of service at Carolina! Before joining Operational Excellence’s inaugural team, her career included positions at the Kenan-Flagler Business School and Information Technology Services.
Candace has earned the respect of her peers through her expertise in design thinking, problem-solving, and transformation and change management. Furthermore, she continues to play an instrumental role in leading multiple OE projects, like Future of Work and Reserve Capacity, which have significantly contributed to the success and growth of Carolina. She has an outstanding work ethic, and an ability to tackle challenges with poise and determination, truly exemplifying what a good campus partner looks like.
It is worth mentioning that Candace’s impact extends far beyond her professional achievements. Her kindness, approachability, and willingness to support her colleagues have made her a cherished member of our organization. Whether mentoring new team members or helping during difficult times, Candace’s generosity has created a positive and nurturing work environment.
Please join us in expressing our sincere gratitude and appreciation for Candace’s significant contributions and congratulating her on reaching this remarkable milestone. She has left an indelible mark on our institution, and we are honored to be working alongside her. We look forward to more years of continued success together!
