■ Annual Best Practices Guide Continued From Page 60 TECHNOLOGY BrainLit North America By Oliver Moorhouse, President BrainLit, in scale-up mode in the United States, has maintained a flexible, digital and efficient work environment from the beginning of the pandemic. To the market, we have simply doubled-down on our message of delivering healthy, sustainable technology in business environments. Konica Minolta By Rick Taylor, President and CEO Konica Minolta focused on using innovation and technology to solve customers’ business challenges. We reimagined, repackaged and repurposed existing technologies to create new offerings to help companies maintain business continuity. In June, when business offices reopened and needed to control facility entry, we leveraged our expertise in technology, products and workflow services to bring to market our “Return to Work” program. This comprehensive, endto-end solution combines our proprietary software and ECM workflow solutions with our MOBOTIX Thermal TR cameras to support employees’ safe return to offices. With remote work expected to continue, we again responded to changing market needs with the July launch of “Remote Work” and “Home Assurance,” two platforms designed to equip organizations with the resources, security and processes required to enable a permanent remote workforce. I am proud of our agility to meet customers’ needs, and we will continue to pivot as the world of work evolves. LG Electronics North America By Thomas Yoon, President and CEO At LG, I established what we’re calling our “New Way of Working.” This goes beyond home offices, remote meetings and virtual conferences. It’s a new mindset that redefines how LG will exceed customer expectations during the pandemic, into the new normal and beyond. We focused on three areas: keeping our employees (and by extension their families and our communities) safe; assuring business continuity, optimizing our supply chain and supporting our customers; and giving back to our neighbors in need. Building on that foundation, we streamlined certain functions, identified product growth opportunities and implemented new processes—all to be more responsive to the rapidly changing market dynamics. Unprecedented times require unprecedented actions, and I am very proud of our employees in New Jersey and around the country who are embracing LG’s New Way of Working, which I believe will make us even more nimble and more competitive. UTILITIES JCP&L By James V. Fakult, President and CEO Throughout this health emergency, the goal of our front-line workers has been to complete every job safely and keep the power flowing to our 1.1 million customers. Our utility workers have adapted to new national safety requirements, while responding to customer outages with minimal impact to operations. To safeguard the health and safety of our employees, contractors and customers, JCP&L has implemented daily precautions, including alternating shifts and relocating job briefings conducive to social distancing; splitting into smaller work units to support distance between employees; and working from home when possible. In addition, effective March 13, JCP&L temporarily discontinued service shutoffs for past-due customers. We understand many customers are in a difficult financial situation because of the pandemic, and we encourage JCP&L customers to explore some of our customer assistance programs to help work through these challenging times before overdue balances become unmanageable. ■ Advertisers’ Directory Abel HR.......................................................... 26 Accounting Practice Sales............................... 15 AmeriHealth New Jersey................................. 41 Amy Delman Public Relations LLC................... 24 Atlantic Health System................................... 63 AWT Environmental Services, Inc.................... 19 Bergen New Bridge Medical Center................ 47 Bergman Real Estate Group............................ 59 Caucus New Jersey......................................... 55 Citrin Cooperman.......................................... 35 Clear Tunnels LLC........................................... 57 Columbia Bank................................................. 5 Concrete Washout Systems............................ 16 County College of Morris............................... 15 Delta Dental..................................................
