Those of you who know me well know
that I listen to a lot of off-the-beaten-path
music (by the way if you haven’t heard Viet
Cong’s latest song “Silhouettes,” you’re
missing out on some AWESOME tunes!).
In fact, my iPod is filled with all types of
underground, alternative music.
One of the many things I loved about
the ‘80s were the Fanzines, or magazine
publications produced by fans to celebrate
a specific genre of music or band. These
works of art exuded passion and creativity. I remember waiting impatiently every
30 days for the newest issue to arrive so
I could get insight into my favorite bands,
derive meaning behind some of their
work and get a behind-the-scenes look
at how the group made music magic.
What always stood out to me was how
the Fanzine talked to you instead of at you.
It felt different than “Rolling Stone,” “New
Musical” or “Melody Maker.” It wasn’t the
TAKE FIVE
typical magazine. The creators spoke your
language. They brought you topics that
resonated. They focused on the personal
connection with readers.
It’s always been my hope to bring a similar
publication to our Atrion community. What
better way to communicate with our
stakeholders—from clients to employees
to partners—than through a quarterly
magazine?
Today, I am incredibly excited to introduce our very first issue of “ON”, Atrion’s
quarterly magazine that is designed 100
percent with you in mind. We will explore
the challenges you face in the IT battlegrounds; the technological advances that
can transform your business; and the
potential for incredible business outcomes.
We will spotlight the amazing advancements being made by some of our clients
as well as the rock-star work being done
right here in the Atrion walls.
