The project I am most excited about from an IT perspective is the Zero Touch Deployment. This means that the Service Desk would spend less time building out laptop systems and more time developing services that allow for users to self-serve themselves.

We have four feedback cycles per year (although my manager and I actually have these every 6 weeks) and very clear frameworks that describe what skills and competencies you need to advance to the next level. Anyone who is willing to learn and collaborate will have no shortage of opportunities to grow.
