Rodriguez
Office Administrator
What are you most proud of at CCS?
“When I first started working at CCS I had two
main goals for myself. One was to help CCS
become involved in more charity work, and for
me as the office administrator to provide more
opportunities for them to do so.
The second goal was to make people feel joyful,
appreciated and comfortable with me. I was
quite nervous because I knew I had big shoes to
fill for my position. Everyone was so used to
Bob’s way, that I worried that my way of doing
things would make people feel disappointed.
But I have always been one to believe that you
have to be yourself no matter where you go, or
who you meet. I am quite proud of myself for
working towards achieving both of these goals
every day, in every way I can, and I think CCS
will really see this in full effect in 2015.”

Anytime I pass [Ray Muneton] in the office, she stops to ask how I
am or at the very least smiles to acknowledge my presence – she
is warm and caring and I think that’s a unique quality to have in
the workplace. Ray is also an inspiration to women because she is
in a field – Engineering and the Consumer Electronic space -
where it is predominantly men. Ray is a great role model for the
working woman as well as she seems to seamlessly balance her
profession and family life – with her husband and 2 children.

What are you most proud of at CCS?
“I am proud of my tenacious ability to quickly
learn the business, identify key players in the
industry, develop my professional career path
and follow through with the goals that I set
forth coming into this new company. From the
moment I set foot on company ground in mid-
November, I knew there was client transitioning
that was being assorted and assigned and I
would have about 1.5 months without being
fully dedicated to accounts. I used that time to
build relationships, understand the business and
most importantly see how I could fill a gap and
contribute to company growth and success. The
gap that I set out to fill was to partner with the
BD team to ramp up our CES strategy for
mining for prospects. Working in lock step with
the BD team not only helped me get hands on
with the business and accelerated my learning
curve, but also proved to the CCS team of my
dedication to the company and my passion for
being a team player.”

I came into uncharted waters and feel that I

looking for ways that I could contribute up and
above my job description. Many of these duties

description.
I would say that my proudest accomplishment
was singlehandedly researching, planning and
coordinating our annual “Build Day” with

give back to our clients and community and this
accomplishments surely matches our values. We

wonderful opportunity for employees to team
build while giving back to our community.”

struggled with the newness of field. The first
phase of the project was to organize National
Training Meeting with which was held in Atlanta.
The goal of this meeting was for the 33 Casio
reps to meet our client and spend a few days
learning about Casio’s products and brand. One
of my tasks during that time was to build out
call reports and create content for the Casio
modules. As I sat there in the audience at the
NTM I realized that the tools I had been
working on over the past few months would
truly help the reps during their visits. They were
excited to use the tools. I felt like I had
contributed to helping the new Casio reps start
a new job and giving them the support aids
they needed to succeed.”
