A 20-year journey through the lens of Nick Lonsdale, former CEO

Like any journey there will be obstacles, and overcoming these only makes us stronger.

“There have been challenges along the way. And it will always be like that. But, solving challenges and problems is what keeps me so engaged at work”. We, as a team, have overcome them by talking to each other openly, encouraging ourselves to think outside the box, and reacting quickly to change” he stated.

One of the major achievements we have are the partnerships we have built with our clients. Nick shared that, “it is so important for us to be able to retain our clients, it validates what we are doing and what we believe in. We are honest, dependable and supportive”. During these pandemic times this has presented a huge challenge, but the NashTech board have sailed a sensible route through uncharted waters.

Early on in 2020 as the epidemic became a pandemic we had to react quickly but in an incredibly considered way. Nick shared that, “we had to take a step back and think, ‘what do we want see in our post-Covid world?’ The team considered many outcomes and came to the decision that, more importantly than anything else, we want our clients to have the confidence that they will be working with the same team on their projects. To do this, we needed to remember our core values; what is best for our people, for our clients and how do we create success”. NashTech, as a company, has always been open to change, to learn, and pursue the best. That is also what we encourage our teams, in any location, at any position, to embrace and pass through generations.”

Throughout the 20-year journey, NashTech has always been a people-oriented and open-minded organisation. We put continuous effort into investing and nurturing our teams, creating an environment where they can grow professionally and personally. This shines through the various activities that we have been doing; from training our employees, offering opportunities for them to challenge themselves and grow, to conducting research and exploring new tech, all of which benefits not only ourselves but also our clients. Our clients especially value NashTech being disarmingly open – it allows us to get to issues and solutions even faster than some of our competition.
