With the start of the new year, we are setting the stage for greatness in all that we do. Meet a few staff members in A&F who are sharing their perspective on setting and achieving goals for success in 2024.

 Shantay N. Bolton, executive vice president for Administration and Finance and chief business officer, recently announced leadership and organizational changes to better support the operational and compliance needs of the Institute.  

Maria Cimilluca, vice president for Infrastructure and Sustainability, has announced her plans to depart Georgia Tech to join Harvard University as senior director of Capital Planning and Project Services. 

Do you work with an outstanding co-worker or team member? Is there a new hire in your department who exhibits visionary leadership? Are you the team member who regularly identifies problems but focuses on potential solutions? Then take the time to nominate them, or yourself, for a Staff Award. 

January is National Mentoring Month and Georgia Tech employees can join Tech’s mentoring program, MentorTech, to maximize their career development this year.  

If you want to empower others or are interested in taking ownership of your professional growth in 2024, create a mentor or mentee profile. Register by Jan. 31, 2024, to potentially be matched in February.
