Fisher's recently partnered with Boise State Radio to be the primary underwriter for American Public Media's Marketplace programming on NPR. I had the honor of meeting with Kai Ryssdal, the charismatic host of Marketplace, twice this week. Although this was Kai's first trip to Boise, he spoke of Treasure Valley, BSU football, I84 traffic problems, and local news events as if he lived here. He also broadcast his Marketplace program to the nation from little old Boise.

Fisher's Document Systems was recently selected as Idaho's 18th largest technology company in the Statesman's annual Tech Idaho publication. Fisher's designation as a technology company makes all the sense in the world now... but this would not have been true of Fisher's in our recent history; nor is it true of the typical office equipment company.

It is commonly said that companies must challenge themselves and continually introduce change initiatives in order to grow. But what information is used to drive these change initiatives? Certainly market data, industry trends, financial analysis, etc. are important inputs to change, but the most critical impetus for change is often overlooked: feedback from customers.

It's cliche but true... when leading a company through dramatic growth and change you need to surround yourself with extremely bright people and leverage their strengths and ideas.
