Congrats to Pat Maher on His Retirement! 🎉 We're celebrating Pat Maher as he wraps up his incredible journey at SPR! For 20 years, Pat has been a driving force behind our civic engagement efforts, breaking down barriers for people with disabilities and shaping a culture of true inclusion. Pat’s grit and heart have always been his trademarks. CEO Rob Figliulo remembers the time Pat showed up to work during a blizzard, snow on his wheelchair, just because he “loved a challenge.” That’s who Pat is. His work opened doors for so many and left a lasting impact on us all. Pat, we’ll miss you, but your legacy of compassion, determination, and leadership will always be a part of SPR. Enjoy retirement—you deserve it! #SPRCares #SPRCulture #Retirement #CivicEngagement

Great to see SPR's Trey Gourley sharing his insights with tomorrow's workforce!
Earlier today, we had Trey Gourley talk with our students about life after graduation and their transition into a career as a web developer. Over his many years of experience, he developed a few principles that can help new web developers make this transition. He discussed these principles and answered questions. Trey Gourley is a software development leader with 20+ years of experience. Trey has had the opportunity to work for both small businesses as well as larger corporations, which has allowed him to experience the uniqueness and benefits of both. Trey has worked on technologies ranging from enterprise software to IoT and has extensive knowledge of how to design, develop, and complete large custom software products. Trey is a 2005 graduate of our department, and we are grateful for his willingness to take time to meet with our students.

AI isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a game changer for tech leaders. https://bit.ly/4f3Mcym During our Tech Leadership Exchange, we heard how one company is integrating AI to automate medical reports, freeing up their skilled professionals to focus on quality control. By augmenting—not replacing—human roles, they’ve seen improved efficiency and outcomes for their clients. Interestingly, our event polling data revealed that while 44% of organizations are exploring AI adoption, 63% of tech leaders are struggling to find the right talent to implement AI. Here’s the takeaway: AI should enhance human expertise, not replace it. What are your organization’s biggest hurdles with AI adoption?
