Speaker: Amy Buzzi McCallum, Business Development Representative

Tell us about yourself (where you are from, interests, and hobbies).

Amy Buzzi McCallum: Hi, I'm Amy Buzzi McCallum, a business development representative here at Innovapptive. I was born here in Houston, but I've moved around a lot. I've lived in north Louisiana, south Louisiana south Florida, South Carolina. And I also lived a year in Hawaii on the big island in Kona. I'm married with three daughters. I have one heading off to college soon. She plays a lot of soccer. My middle daughter loves her art, she's very talented with her art and then my youngest daughter also plays a lot of soccer. As far as hobbies go, Well I love to eat so my husband and I eat out a lot. We love that Houston has a lot of good places to choose from. However, at the end of the day we kind of just get to the basics and love our tacos and Tex-Mex. As far as hobbies, my favorite thing to do in my pastime is to go to a spin class here. I have a favorite place and a favorite instructor I like. It's a good way to just decompress, listen to good music, see some friends and all while staying healthy at the same time. Other hobbies... We love going to the Houston Dash games. We love watching the US women's national team, we love the men's national team in soccer as well. And of course we love college football season. Go tigers!

Tell us about your role and your team at Innovapptive.

Amy Buzzi McCallum: So my role here, as business development representative, is really kind of finding out how we can help companies. So I ask a lot of questions. I do a lot of talking. I like to talk, but a lot of the questions I ask are what's going on with a company's business, where is their need, where do they feel like maybe there are some gaps with their productivity in their plants or in their warehouses? So I kind of help establish or get some of those answers and really connect those companies and their situation here with the appropriate account executive and the right sales engineer. So I kind of feel like I connect people together. I talk with a lot of general manufacturing companies, oil and gas, energy. I work with companies here in Texas, but also a number of times during the week I'll speak with someone in Europe. Today I think I actually have a call with someone in Budapest. So it's nice to kind of connect with other companies around the world and help them find a way that they can connect their frontline workers with their back office.

What are some things you have enjoyed about working at Innovapptive?

Amy Buzzi McCallum: So what are some things I've enjoyed about working at Innovapptive? Well kind of in the name... We are an innovative company. We have a really cool office here in Houston. We have cool furniture. We're in a great building in a great location. But mostly we have great people that work here. We have some really nice people, really smart people, really creative people that make Innovapptive what it is. They're actually very innovative and we have to have those creative minds to move forward with the way the world is going right now. Some of the other things that I've enjoyed - I really enjoyed going to IQPC about a month ago. I enjoyed meeting some companies out there that have a need for the connected worker. So I think just really getting to know my coworkers and getting to know the customers. That's what I've enjoyed enjoyed most.

What is your mission at Innovapptive and how does it contribute to Innovapptive’s overall mission to connect workers?

Amy Buzzi McCallum: My mission here at Innovapptive is to make us the number one connected worker platform on the market so that when people think of mobile work order management, mobile inventory management, mobile warehouse management, or even mobile fixed asset management, they will think of it of Innovapptive as the world leader.

What makes Innovapptive exciting over the next 5 years?

Amy Buzzi McCallum: I think what makes an Innovapptive exciting and will continue to make us an exciting place to work for the next five years is that we've been ahead of the game as far as digital transformation and companies are, are starting to catch on and catch up. And as companies realize that that paper trails don't work and there are more efficient ways to do business, especially through smartphones and tablets and connecting those workers to the back office via the smartphones and tablets, Innovapptive is gonna be here when they're ready. So I'm just really excited over what's to come for this company and I can't wait to see what the next five years holds.
