Not only has she been a great friend and mentor to me and our leadership team, she has also been a passionate supporter of the investments we continue to make that are targeted to help her mid-market peers become more competitive. I think I speak for Barb when I say that she is very excited about our 2017 campaign, and I look forward to working closely with her and the rest of the board to make it a success.”
