HP Humanity Hero Campaign.

HP Humanity Hero Campaign. 

By: Chris Tinker

 

9/13/2010, HP launched a Humanity campaign for which both Greg and I participated.  Each member that participated did so for different reasons and objectives.  Greg and I discussed this opportunity and approached it with the same objective:

 

Inform clients as to what HP’s Technical Support Services can do for them.

 

Greg and I hope everyone who visits the HP Humanity Hero campaign website will see firsthand how HP’s talented individuals make the difference.  Though only a few were chosen to participate, the message is the same; HP has the technical resources to tackle any business IT challenge.  Having these resources is only part of the message though; as HP empowers employees to partner with customers in order to achieve open dialogue enabling HP’s talent to combat their IT challenges.

 

For now, Greg and I respectfully request you to visit the HP Humanity Hero website http://www.hp.com/go/tsconnect  and post your feedback below for discussion.

  • Kevin has been the program manager for the HP Web Services Always On Support Communities for the past several years, and is responsible for the administration, management, and planning for commercial and enterprise social media capabilities.
  • I joined the HP family in 1996 after working the previous 10 years as a Field Engineer and finally as a Network Administrator. I started with HP as a Response Center Engineer supporting high-end CPU hardware then was recruited into a new team supporting Predictive Software which evolved into Instant Support Enterprise Edition (ISEE). I now am a Technical Solutions Consultant III working in the Global Competency Center for HP. My primary functions include support for HP Insight Remote Support, its associated applications and am a Knowledge Capture Support (KCS) / Services Access Workbench (SAW) champion for HP. My goal when working with either HP customers or HP's field engineers is to find a solution to the problem as quickly as possible, often other problems are found during the process and the customer appreciates it when those are also resolved. I make myself available and never close a case until both the customer and I are satisfied with the outcome. This process builds true relationships and to my delight this has often enabled me to assist the same people over the years.
  • I have been with HP for 13 years, always in Services - first as a Services Channel Sales rep, then a Channel Services Segment Manager, and now, in WW Technology Services Marketing. These may be my formal job titles, but I'm really a Cheerleader for HP Services! I feel that HP has great services, exceptional Technical Experts and Delivery teams, and so many cool things are going on at HP Services. So, stay tuned...
  • Think technology services is exciting? I do. For me, nothing is better than seeing companies get the most out of their technology & people to do cool things... evolve, merge, grow ... After more years than I care to mention working with HP Customers its still exciting & matters to me. Love sailing too.
  • I have worked with Data Protector (formerly Omniback II) since 1999. Traveling across the United States as a Sr. Technical Consultant, I deliver Data Protector consulting for a broad variety of HP customers.
  • MrCollaboration (aka Jim Evans) is an HP Global Services Alliance Manager. He has worked in the IT industry for more than 30 years, 22 of which were spent with Digital Equipment Corporation, Compaq and HP. He works with many third party vendors and partners to develop processes to facilitate excellent support and service for mutual customers. Jim is also HP’s representative to the Technical Support Alliance Network (TSANet).
  • I've been working in Customer Service for over 20 years. During my career I've provided support services for Languages, Programming Libraries and Operating Systems. During the last 10 years I've provide support for Linux and more recently VMware. My current role is as a Technical Account Manager working in the HP Custom Mission Critical Services Industry Standard Operating Systems team. I provide both reactive and proactive operating system support for proLiant servers and blades. Our services in the Custom teams are built on statement of work contracts for large HP customers who need a customized mission critical support offering.
  • I like to listen as much as I like to talk. Why? My 25+ years in the technology industry has taught me that the key to delivering value to customers is to understand what they value in the first place! I developed this passion for customers and consultative selling during my 12 years with Accenture, and I have continued to approach customers in a consultative way during my 12+ year tenure with HP. I also have a passion for HP given my knowledge of our Product and Service Portfolio and the differentiators we possess that position us as a leader in the areas our customers are telling us they want to go. Converged Infrastructure, Converged Cloud, Big Data – and the associated Service and Support implications – all such exciting technology trends where our success will hinge upon our ability to differentiate ourselves versus others in the areas that matter most to our customers. Right up my alley, and I am proud to be part of the great HP team where I know we have the best solutions in the industry!
