As many
of you are probably aware, APQC is based in HoustonTexas,
which suffered a major hurricane on the night of September 12. Ike's high winds
and flooding caused severe damage throughout the area, and more than two million
residents were left without power.
Fortunately,
the APQC campus was extremely lucky and sustained only minor damage. Although many
old and beautiful trees were downed around the property, the building was unharmed
and electricity was restored only a few days after the storm. Our disaster
recovery team did a great job of keeping staff members
informed about what was happening at APQC.
With most
schools closed and many homes still without power, the past week has been challenging
for many APQC employees. However, things
in Houston are
slowly returning to normal, and I'm happy
to announce that KM Edge will resume its regular posting schedule this week. Thank
you so much for your patience and good wishes during this difficult time.
Thank you for the update Lauren. I'm glad APQC's maded it through, and I hope that everyone has fared equally well with their homes and families on the personal side as well. As beautiful as nature is, it can present it's challenges.
