Microsoft Dynamics Gold ERP Partner Recognizes Team Members that Embody Company-Defining Values 

ATLANTA, GA —February 14, 2022 — ArcherPoint, Inc., a Microsoft Dynamics ERP Gold Partner, Cloud Solution Provider (CSP), and full-service provider of Dynamics 365 Business Central and LS Retail, is pleased and proud to announce the winners of the company’s 2021 Core Value Awards.  

As part of ArcherPoint’s focus on continuously building better businesses, communities, and individuals through a focus on service, learning, and leadership, employees are asked to nominate and vote on individuals within the organization who have distinguished themselves around one of the company’s core values

“Our Core Value Awards mean so much because it is the ultimate recognition by your peers. We believe that our Core Values are what makes us unique and guides us as we make decisions for today and for the future.”, said Greg Kaupp, co-founder and CEO. “This is of particular significance as we are in the midst of celebrating 20 years in business, and that success is due in no small part to those values. As Patrick Lencioni would say, ‘Your core values are what you should hire, fire, and reward by and they should cost you something if they really mean something.’”

“Celebrating and acknowledging our fellow employee-owners for how they embody our Core Values is something we do consistently, including on each and every monthly company call,” said Debbie Shumake, Culture Champion and head of Talent and Leadership Development for ArcherPoint. “Our Annual Core Values Awards process gives us the opportunity to spotlight exemplary on-going action and alignment with the Core Values that are such an important part of our unique ArcherPoint DNA.” For our 2021 awards, we had over 35 nominations in each Core Value category, recognizing that any peer nomination is also worth celebrating. 

We believe that our Core Values are what makes us unique and guides us as we make decisions for today and for the future.

CEO, ArcherPoint
