Re: Framework for an Exciting Future

Our company has an exciting future before it. Through the partnership with our newest team member, ABC Capital Venture Firm, Atha Corp now can achieve the goal of doubling our sales. We will achieve this goal by recruiting new talent while adopting new cutting edge technology.

The newest technology in cloud-based computing accounting software and the addition of new team members is on track for the Accounting and Finance area. We understand that the best way to help you succeed in this transformative time is to provide you with the best tools available.

Aside from new technology, we have implemented a new structure to the department. Each department has outlined clear individual goals. The success of achieving these objectives are essential to accomplishing the exciting transitions taking place. We have created a fair, and easy to understand format to measure performance to achieve these ambitious goals.

We, Atha Corp management, understand that the number one factor in the success of this company is you, the employee. Management has worked with the Human Resources department to create clear, accessible channels for each employee to discuss any issues as they may arise.

The future is bright for Atha Corp and its employees. Through the implementation of new technology and clear channels of employee communication, we all can achieve the goal of doubling sales within a year. Working together to create a prosperous future will not only achieve the company's objectives, but will enrich all of our lives as well.
