Q : What excites you the most about your work and Cox ’ s future ?
Shereta : I ’ m excited to know that a company as strong as Cox is focused on sustainability and solving some of the world ’ s biggest problems in terms of waste and energy . We have a lot of really smart people whose hearts and minds are in the right places , and they ’ re going after big problems that can impact not just this generation , but many more to come .
Joe : I ’ m excited about electric and the convergence of Autonomous , Connected , Electric and Shared ( ACES ). Amy always says the future ’ s here , it ’ s just unevenly spread across the current state . There are some big challenges , mostly around what we ’ re going to do with all these batteries once they get past their useful life . Are they going to end up shredded in the ocean or in landfills ? We ’ ve got a few aces up our sleeve on how we can be part of the solution .
Sujata : I ’ m humbled to work for a company that plays such a critical role in our society . When you think about what kept our communities going during the pandemic , it was being connected , and our teams made that happen . We don ’ t take that responsibility lightly . And when we look forward to all the ways connectivity is going to change the world , we get to be a part of that , which will create new opportunities for our business and our employees .
Amy : Everything about the vehicle , other than its shape and four wheels , is changing , and we are preparing to take advantage of that . It opens up new options for transportation , how consumers in America move from point A to point B and vehicle accessibility , which is really exciting . We don ’ t know the full potential yet , but the road to get there has a lot of interesting new business models that we can help our customers navigate .
Tony : My passion is the awesome opportunity I have to get a wireless business launched . It ’ s a great responsibility , but what an adventure to build something from scratch , launch it , nurture it and watch it grow .
