A General History of CNC Prototype in China

Since 1958 china has there first computerized numerical control machine made from Tsinghua university, it starts a new era in the Chinese heavy machine industry. However, due to the limited technology at that time and the beginning of economic and industrial recovery from world war two and civil war, Chinese CNC manufacture are still under the research and development stage and mainly focus on services for the military or aerospace industry only. Until the 1980s, with the Chinese economic reform and open, the CNC machine industry start serving for civil purposes since china becomes the world industry center.

Even though the CNC machine has become the critical role of modern Chinese manufacture tools, it still serves as an advanced tool for manufacture and mass production that complete industrial market-ready products that orders from a foreign country, and there is no real work that involves in prototyping. And the transition from manufacturer outsources base to prototyping capability starts when China becomes the world’s largest automotive industry country.

How rapid prototyping starts from the automotive industry?

In 1990, China has become the largest automotive manufacturer(fig1.1). Even high-end automotive brands such as Audi, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz have manufacture locations in china. The demands of CNC prototyping for mechanical parts of automotive and headlight that involve in plastic injection molding from local china due to the cost-saving and time reducing are rapidly increasing every year, it triggers the supply of CNC industrial and reaching 62 billion US dollar capital in 2014. The quality of products from the CNC machine also improved drastically as the speed and tolerance also enhanced, which is the two most essential standards in the CNC machine prototype industrial. The patience of a standard three axial CNC Machine reduced from 10 μm to 5 μm. Accurate classic five axial CNC machine reduced from 3~5 μm to 1`1.5 μm, hyper-accurate CNC machine tolerance can reach up to 0.001 μm. all the above tolerance achieve by implementing the Technology of ball screw pair, hydrostatic guide, linear rolling guide, and magnetic suspension guide. the feeding speed of the central axial also increase to a minimum 60m/min, acceleration and deceleration can achieve 1 to 2 g minimum, the rotation speed can reach 100000rev/min.

These tolerance and speed improvements allow china not only to satisfy and take challenges from the automotive industry but also to establish advanced manufacturing projects such as the China High-Speed railway and china Railway High-Speed when all the essential components require rapid prototyping.

Why CNC prototyping machining is more and more important?

All R&D project or process need to develop an engineering or product prototype, not only the appearance and size needs to be close to the final release market-ready product, its functionally and output also needs to be close to the final design purpose. Since the purpose of a prototype is for demonstration, test, and functionally check, it most likely to be disposed of recycling. Therefore, the cost-efficient solution needs to consider since the keyword of rapid means keeps making and disposal; it is a ubiquitous process of an engineering project. Material that falls in the Aluminium and plastic category is great cost-effectively and can achieve the general purpose of most product required strength/weight ratio.

Compared to CNC, someone who proposes 3D printing is also a new option for a prototype. It costs less material in the production and can achieve complicated geometry shaped of design such internal honey corn structure to reduce the weight. At the same time, maintain the strength of the material, but CNC machining takes less production time compared to a standard hand size part, 3D printing needs approximately 30–40 mins, CNC machining only takes about 2–3 mins to complete. When it comes to a prototype, CNC prototype material consumption is not a consideration anymore. Hence, the CNC machine prototype is better options than a 3D printer in the current world manufacturing environment.

Why should you have your CNC machining prototype in China?

The answer is simple: Compared to other countries, you can get the same quality of prototypes or parts with much less price and time-consuming if you order CNC prototypes in China. In 2018, there are 1391 companies that specialize in CNC machining, include all the CNC machine ownership, 82% are made in China which mainly focus on the preliminary type of prototyping, 65% medium precision 5 axial CNC machine for high precision prototype or manufacture, 6% of them are for high precision 7 axial CNC machine.

China has a complete CNC machine industrial system from production to maintenance, cutting tools supply, and highly trained machine operator. With many years of experience in automotive, mechanical machinery, molding, and aerospace, a sophisticated system that supports all types of a prototype that use to prototype in a traditional industrial-based country like japan or German.

With the guarantee of quality and services, the price advantage is enormous: the combination of operator fees and machine operation fees is 34% of North American, 41.3 % of Japan, 26% of Europe CNC machine service. The amount of production time can reduce to up to 61% of the original prototype time. With a combination of Chinese robust transportation and shipping supply chain, guaranteed service for the prototype assured.

The 13th five-year plan decides to shift traditional manufacturing to advanced manufacturing, information technology, biotechnology, and new energy with new material demand precise, high efficiency, and specific type of objective focus CNC machine prototyping method. Economic globally accelerates these changes and upgrade traditional CNC machining prototype to advanced technology in china and keep up a highly competitive situation to meet the global challenge.

Eventually, the Chinese CNC prototyping industrial will cooperator with foreign manufacturing enterprises or independent foreign investors to combine resources and technology. And generate an ultimate product supply chain that allows most civil purpose products can create directly from concept to prototype product then establish mass production all within china to save the time, cost, and reduce the risk.

AhlamBolooki: An Avid Reader and A Successful Implementer

Literature has been enhancing our lives since dawn of time, and so has reading culture. With a view to promoting the culture of reading and the richness of stories in all their forms, the Emirates Airline Festival of Literature was launched in 2009 with 65 authors. It has grown continually, and in 2020 it hosted 205 authors from countries around the world to entertain and educate tens of thousands of visitors. The artistic vision and its development are taken care by its Director, AhlamBolooki. With her love for books, Ahlam has taken this festival to the next level.
In an interview with CIO Look, Ahlam shares a glimpse of her journey and how this festival is captivating its visitors from different corners of the world.
Below are the highlights of the interview:
Kindly take us through your journey.
Before joining the Festival, I spent many years working with Dubai Tourism, most recently as Head of Regional Campaigns. There is a lot of synergy between the two roles, and I learned a lot that I bring with me to this role.
I can’t emphasize enough the importance of having a role model. A mentor is even better. Everybody needs someone to learn from no matter how high up the ladder we reach.
Look around you and see if there is anyone who is demonstrating the values you want to stay true to. If you don’t have someone in your organisation, then look further afield. Read books by successful women. Watch TED talks, listen to podcasts and continue feeding your mind.
How do you diversify your organization’s offerings to entice the target audience?
We know our audience, but to make sure we are on the right track, we ask for their opinion on a continuous basis. As a Foundation, we balance the desires of the audience with the needs of our community, which is how we have arrived where we are today: with the biggest literature Festival in the Middle East, a plethora of competitions, a wide-ranging Education Programme, celebration of and professional development for librarians, and courses, talks, and special initiatives that all build the foundations for a reading society.
For the Festival specifically, we have a theme every year, so we always look at how an author and their works fit with our theme. But we are also an organisation full of readers, so we have our own personal wish lists as well as those our community sends us.
Every year we aim to have the perfect combination of well-known and new, best-selling, and niche, acrossnon-fiction, fiction, adults and children’s books in both Arabic and English.
How do you strategize your game plans to tackle the competition in the market?
We are the biggest and best loved celebration of the written and spoken word in the Middle East. While we don’t rest on our laurels, we do see our biggest challenge as pulling in those who don’t see themselves as readers. Those are the people we need to convert, so in a sense we are competing with cinemas, restaurants, and every other activity available at that time.
To address this, we use creative and often surprising programming and marketing, which has worked well in the past.
What, according to you, are the vital traits that every businesswoman should possess?
Our CEO and founder, Isobel Abuhoul OBE, is someone I look up to in business. She leads by example, treating each member of staff and the community with the same level of respect regardless of gender, age, or nationality.
Thirteen years ago, she saw a gap in the market and set out to create the festival to fill it. She could see the tremendous impact reading for pleasure has on individuals, and on society as a whole. She knew that if she could bring to Dubai a celebration of literature that was fun and would engage a wider section of the community than the regular readers, it would take hold and have a real and lasting impact.
She then did what any entrepreneur does: put in a lot of incredibly hard work. There are no shortcuts. Success takes grit and determination.
What roadblocks or challenges were faced by you in a corporate setting?And how did you overcome them?
I think in our role, pleasing so many different audiences in Dubai’s remarkably diverse community is always a challenge, but one that I enjoy very much. Always keeping on top of the local and global conversation when it comes to trends, behaviours, interests, politics,businesses, popular genres etc. becomes necessary.
Work life balance has always been a challenge for me, but the more I immersed myself in jobs which give me purpose and become a lifestyle, the more balanced my life has been feeling.
Have you in any ways contributed towards the cause of women empowerment?
Championing gender equality is a core value at Emirates Literature Foundation. This is apparent in our team culture, as well as our Festival Programme. Each year, we welcome some of the most powerful female voices from around the world.
Within our organization, we offer flexibility to all our employees because we know this allows us access to a wider candidate pool of talented, experienced people, including working mothers. We believe in the importance of healthy family life and appreciate the vital roles of women within their families. We see work-life balance as a necessity for a hopeful future for our society. In our experience, this flexibility and work-life balance allows women to contribute more effectively and wholeheartedly to their roles.
How do you cope up with capricious technological trends to boost your personal growth?
My favourite tools for personal growth are books, audio books, and podcasts. The most important technological trends are talked and written about, and the publishing process has the quality control and review process in place to ensure that the information you receive is verified.
What are your future endeavours/objectives and where do you see yourself in the near future?
My objective and ambition are always to connect as many people as possible with books and authors. We know reading creates empathy, and that is what we need most of all in the world today. Empathy and empathetic action towards others, towards our planet and to ourselves.

Yoko Nagai: Redefining the Benchmarks in Healthcare

We are survival machines – robot vehicles blindly programmed to preserve the selfish molecules known as genes. – Richard Dawkins, The Selfish Gene
The current pandemic has hit the businesses in almost every industry, making it a deep fall of the economy to witness. In such difficult times, we as in the world are in great need of some exceptional and young leaders that can set examples by inspiring buds. This edition focuses on avid leaders, who possess the ability to inspire and motivate others thus it’s entitled, “The 10 Young and Inspiring Businesswomen to Watch in 2020. ”

One such entity is Yoko Nagai, Co-founder and CTO of Varinos, Inc. —a specialist in next-generation sequencing (NGS) based genetic testing with the goal of using the genomic information that shapes life to advance reproductive and perinatal medicine related to the birth of life. Her unique ideas and methods helped her to achieve many milestones in her pathway.

A Glimpse into Yoko’s Life

She studied embryology, the study of the birth of life, and used model organisms to research the mechanisms of hereditary diseases. After her PhD, she moved into the programming world of bioinformatics so that she could do genetic research more related to human diseases.

At that time, human genome research was flourishing all over the world and she was inundated with new knowledge every day. She was building a database of disease-related genes, with the aim of applying this scientific knowledge to healthcare for people and treatment for patients. However, she was struggling to connect this knowledge to a useful service, and then she was recruited as a sequencing specialist at Illumina Inc.

Joining one of the pioneering companies in genome technology has expanded her horizons. As she learned that services using genome sequencing technology were being developed and established as an industry around the world, her desire to launch a genomic medicine business in Japan grew stronger and stronger.

This led to starting up a company with Yoshiyuki Sakuraba, who shares the same passion. In the first two years, they both concentrated on research and development, and in the third year, they focused on branding the company as a new kind of genome testing company and expanding overseas and new business.

One-Step ahead of the Competition

In Japan, there are very few biotech ventures that can develop genetic tests based on genome analysis technology. Despite the progress of genome research in Japan, clinical application and practical use of genome technology has been delayed compared to the rest of the world. Especially in Japan, the genome industry has not developed because no one has challenged the development of a new market, which is small and risky at the time of its launch. Therefore, the company aimed to capture a large share of a new market by targeting a niche area with few competitors.

The Pre-implantation Genetic Testing for Aneuploidy (PGT-A), which uses genome analysis technology to detect chromosomal abnormalities that cause miscarriage and increase the success rate of pregnancy, was expected to become a very large market if it was introduced in Japan, a country that is one of the most infertile countries in the world.

While Japanese societies were researching the clinical usefulness of PGT-A, Yok o’s company developed an “endometrial microbiome testing” that could lead to an understanding of the causes of implantation failure and a strategy to retain customers. By quickly initiating collaborations with opinion readers who are sensitive to new technologies, it has increased employees’ technical capabilities and expertise, and its clients themselves have become pioneers in the field.

The company’s unique strategy of using the endometrial microbiome testing to optimize the environment in the uterus and transfer optimal embryos with PGT-A to dramatically increase the success rate of pregnancy received global attention.

Eradicating the Challenges

Yoko states that the development of testing services using genomic analysis technology has not been easy. The company’s greatest challenge in the development of endometrial microbiome testing is how it can minimize the effect of environmental bacteria, which could confuse when reporting the results. It has been establishing a method to analyze low-biomass endometrial microbiota since the uterine bacterial load is estimated between 100 and 10,000 times fewer bacteria than the vaginal one, thus, has been thought as sterile until several years ago.

NGS technology is so sensitive and exhaustive that it can detect bacteria in the uterine, which contains extremely low biomass. On the other hand, bacteria exist everywhere, even in reagents used for the analysis. “If you don’t eliminate the noise come from environmental bacteria, it could result in the false results, not as it really is,” says Yoko.

With her distinctive inventions on the protocol and data analysis method, the company has achieved to minimize the effect of environmental bacteria and to establish a special method detecting the uterine-derived bacteria very sensitively.

As Yoko and her team tried to use the customer network and genomics knowledge they had built up in its previous jobs to commercialize preliminarily based technologies, what helped us the most was an investor who could assess the value of its services without a scale. “Without investors who understand science and reproductive medicine, we wouldn’t be in business,” quotes Yoko.

For Her

Yoko believes that by having young female executives talk about the diseases and physical characteristics unique to women, it can help to remove the deep distrust, anxiety and sexual taboos that women suffering from female-specific diseases think they shouldn’t talk about. Also, half of her employees are women.

The company does not give preferential treatment or restrict voluntary and autonomous behavior because of gender. If there’s one thing its executives do specifically for female employees, it works with them sympathetically to come up with solutions when they are struggling with female-specific health problems or illnesses. Yoko and her team also consider pregnancy and childcare to be a top priority, regardless of gender, as a valuable time and experience that enriches a person’s life outside of work.

When asked about the myth of meritocracy, Yoko emphasizes that this is a difficult question to answer and states that she didn’t know about the myth of meritocracy until today. She believes that being justly rewarded by individual merit and increasing corporate value through company sales and growth is a way forward, not a goal to be reached. Various wants to continue to be a company with a sense of mission that uses the capital it raises to develop even more breakthrough products and services to innovate in medicine and industry so that the development of human society benefits its descendants.

Embracing Technology

Yoko states that in today’s mature society, technological innovation is happening every day, and it is difficult to keep track of all the vast amounts of the latest technology and research results, but she wants to be a “Type T” person who can look into other fields of technology, not a “Type I” person who delves into one field only.

There are many researchers and developers who are working hard to solve the various problems that surround us in our daily lives, such as environmental pollution, energy problems, physical disabilities, and loneliness. She was always impressed by the breakthrough ideas and solutions they come up with. Yoko actively collects technological trends in the hopes that they will one day provide her with hints for the business.

Peek into Future

The company has established the world’s first clinical laboratory endometrial microbiome analysis test service and has already analyzed more than 8,000 samples. Using in-house data, it continuously updates its tests to be more accurate such that it can detect “species” level microbiome. It is aware that the human reproductive organs have a unique species of bacteria that are unique to each person.

By revealing more details about the genital microbiota of patients who are not improved by uniform treatments, it hopes to be able to select the most effective antibiotic treatments, probiotics or prebiotics that is personalized for that patient. It also wants to remove the seeds of genetic diseases from families through genome analysis. And, are planning to develop the following tests: preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic diseases designed for the Asian population, and preimplantation genetic testing for breast cancer and other polygenetic diseases.

Christopher Carter: An SAP Veteran Leading the Industry with Three Decades of Experience

**Christopher Carter, Founder & CEO, Approyo**

Danish philosopher Søren Kierkegaard once said, “Life can only be understood backwards, but it must be lived forwards.” If you are getting slightly confused with the quote, allow us to dissect the meaning of it by illustrating the journey of Christopher Carter, Founder & CEO of Approyo.

Mr. Carter attended The Georgia Institute of Technology, where he studied computer engineering. In those days, Mr. Carter was working as a freelancer in Systems, Application, and Products (SAP) technology. However, fate intervened and led him into the marketing industry.

In the late 90s, Mr. Carter realized that SAP is his true passion, and he went back and served it prior to forming his own company. Over the years, he owned multiple businesses, and before he knew it, he ended up selling those. At that moment, Mr. Carter thought it was time to retire.

However, fate intervened again when Mr. Carter heard of SAP HANA and what it had to offer. He dove headfirst back into SAP and came up with Approyo.

Tracing the Journey

Still, to truly understand the journey of Mr. Carter, we need to look at his life between the first owned company and Approyo. He came across the first hurdle with the initial company, where due to some circumstances, he had to close his doors. He also had to come up with a solution to assist his employees in gaining new employment and watch them move on to new companies. Such a closure shattered Mr. Carter’s dream.

Nevertheless, Mr. Carter learned some crucial lessons from the experience and utilized them to create a better future for himself. These challenges are what helped him pave the way to success with the establishment of Approyo back in 2013. In the beginning, the main struggle with Approyo was the enlightenment of all stakeholders about cloud and all the usage for SAP.

For Mr. Carter, learning what the right way to attack prospective clients, know how to earn their trust, etc. was a learning process in itself. With time, the hiring of new staff and growth in certifications and experience, along with the advancement of technology and innovation, helped push Approyo to where it is today.

Sean Buckley: A Caring and Passionate Business Leader Ascending Zeniths

**Sean Buckley, Executive Chairman, Ultra Tune**

Caring for things is a basic human tendency. And in the business landscape, it is not only good to sincerely care for employees, but to master it with the intent to improve productivity and decrease employee turnovers.

However, for business leaders, there isn’t one single trick to achieve all of this. Instead, the best effects on team’s morale and organizational results are a combination of positive practices.

Positive practices are best applied by leaders who demonstrate these positive values. By making a positive tone, leaders can enhance the well-being, teamwork, commitment, and overall corporate performance of their employees.

We commence our special edition, ‘The 10 Most Innovative CEOs Revamping the Future,’ with featuring a positive and caring leader who treats the company and the employees as his own family. We would like you to meet Sean Buckley, Executive Chairman of Ultra Tune.

Mr. Buckley was born and raised in the eastern suburbs of Victoria. He attended high school at Mazenod College in Mulgrave. After obtaining his High School Certificate, he went on to Chisholm Institute to complete a Bachelor of Business and Marketing degree, graduating in 1984.

Mr. Buckley was later appointed as consumer development analyst for Safeway/Woolworths, focusing on new stores and innovative product ranges. In 1988, he travelled with Thomas Cook to Hong Kong, and established offices in India and Pakistan. In 1994, he returned to Australia and soon afterwards began working with Ultra Tune.

Mr. Buckley also helms the chair of leadership with utmost dedication and seriousness. He asserts, “I am largely responsible for the livelihood of thousands of people across our network. I consider Ultra Tune as my family and I make business decisions with this in mind. I would rather lose a million dollars than do the wrong thing by my ‘family’. For me, one of the most important traits any businessman should exemplify is loyalty. My intent is always to act in a loyal, truthful and mutually beneficial manner in business to ensure win/win/win scenarios – wins for our customers, wins for our franchisees and wins for Ultra Tune Australia.”

With this unity, Mr. Buckley has been able surpass any hurdles that came across Ultra Tune with ease. There was a time when he was overseas for an extended period of time and could not take part in the ongoing court case with the ACCC. Once he returned to Australia, the issue was rectified, which was just an operational issue.

It was just a glitch which could have stained the company’s stellar 40 years of operational legacy. That moment taught Mr. Buckley one of the greatest lessons i.e. he needs to keep his finger on the pulse of the organization at all time.

The implications could have been catastrophic, however, being such a well-established and credible company allowed it to ride this setback out and thereafter the company has comeback stronger and more effective than ever before.

The current pandemic also brought enormous challenges for Mr. Buckley. He has been forced to make tough decisions over the last six months. Once again, a profound combination of a sound management team, great network of franchisees, and thinking and adapting to changed circumstances have allowed Ultra Tune to survive better than many other comparable companies.

“We’re clearly not out of the woods yet, but by maintaining an adaptive and proactive approach, I’m confident, five years from now Ultra Tune will continue to be the leading independently owned auto-service company in Australia,” asserts Mr. Buckley.

Besides being the Executive Chairman of the Ultra Group of Companies, Mr. Buckley also sits on the Board of the Australian Automotive Aftermarket Association (AAAA), the professional body that represents independent car repairers.

Furthermore, in December of 2016, he even represented the body at the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission inquiry into the monopoly where new car manufacturers were attempting to sustain on after sales servicing.

Additionally, Mr. Buckley has a great passion for Thoroughbred Horse racing and owns Ultra Thoroughbred Racing, a breeding stud, pre-training, and racing enterprise.

On the personal side, Mr. Buckley understands the course of nature and knows that as he will grow older, he will be less hungry for the business from the professional perspective. As such, he likes to enjoy more time with his three beautiful daughters. However, he believes that there still lies a learning curve for him to master.

Sam Khashman: The Leader who Prioritizes You First

**Sam Khashman | President & Chief, Executive Officer | ImagineSoftware**

The healthcare industry is always sparking debate when it comes to the technological impact it has experienced in recent years. Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the healthcare industry has made some disruptive changes that have become prevalent in recent years. AI learns from the previous data input and analyzes it over time to provide quicker analysis than if deciphered manually. These details have encouraged leaders to come up with innovative ideas to design all-in-one healthcare billing systems.

Sam Khashman, President and CEO of ImagineSoftware represents one such leader who has constituted an example in the healthcare industry by developing automated medical billing software and revenue cycle management applications. His ideas have covered the support and the understandings of billing companies, medical practices, and automated patient payment processing services.

A Comprehensive Approach “If you can imagine it, they can do it.” This very statement was proclaimed by one of ImagineSoftware’s first clients and shaped the future of the company. ImagineSoftware was incorporated and launched in 2000 by Sam Khashman as a workflow and document imaging company. After successfully developing enterprise-wide analysis and financial systems in 2002, Imagine began to focus on the healthcare IT sector in 2003. The initial product was not designed for healthcare but shifted in this direction not long after the system was first developed. They re-engineered the software to accommodate the needs of their initial clients who opened the door for Imagine to gain extensive ground in radiology billing.

Ever since the inception of ImagineSoftware, they have aimed to meet and exceed the needs of their clients and that’s where their product offerings have taken them. In developing a new product or utilizing a partnership, Imagine’s goal was always to bring a solution to the table that solved a problem for their clients. Clients have helped them drive their success and ImagineSoftware takes their needs, suggestions, and requests to heart. Khashman states that “Clients are the foundation behind what we decide to include in the Imagine product suite.” As a result, Imagine has been able to appeal to the market by truly creating systems that are focused on the revenue cycle management landscape as a whole — making it easier to navigate and more profitable for all those involved, while enhancing the client’s reputation by providing an enhanced patient experience.

After 20 years, ImagineSoftware’s goal remains the same: “To be the leading healthcare revenue cycle management platform.” Revenue cycle management possesses the potential to financially make or break healthcare organizations. Besides, with the ever-changing policies and regulations, effective billing and collection processes are becoming more important than ever for medical billing companies, practices, and hospitals to stay afloat. Designed for a complete medical billing solution, ImagineSoftware keeps reinventing revenue cycle management to create a more streamlined and patient-centered experience.

Vision for the Future

Khashman’s vision is to take the company to the next level by leveraging smarter technology and designing new tools that will continue to set them apart in the industry. There is more opportunity than ever to capitalize on the company’s success while chasing ambitious goals. Khashman plans to add several strong resources to his team while expanding his reach within the healthcare ecosystem. Additionally, he wants to leverage new and existing partnerships to give his clients the solutions they need to navigate healthcare billing and reimbursement effectively.

Key Attributes as CEO

Khashman believes every CEO should make certain that their words, beliefs, and actions align with each other. CEOs should be decisive while employing critical sophisticated skills as they build their opinion. As the top executive, they should always remember they must both care for team members as much as they care about people outside of their organization. Practicing servant leadership and building strong relationships with clients, partners and, co-workers while remaining grounded is crucial to the success of an organization.

Communication between Imagine and their clients is still a key factor in how Imagine does business, as it is a conduit for continuous learning and development. In order to accelerate growth and provide vision, Khashman has enabled his team to come up with new innovations and implement them to enhance the client’s experience. “The job of any CEO is to dream big, as there is no magic in thinking small. Coaching employees to do the same constitutes an essential part of moving the team forward,” Khashman says.

Overcoming Challenges

There are several challenges CEOs face when running a business. Both talent acquisition and talent retention are crucial, and naturally every company competes for the best-of-the-best resources. Beyond skills, it can be difficult to find the right talent that aligns with the company’s culture, values, and brand. “We would like to think we can hire the perfect fit, but it’s important to have realistic expectations. In that respect, sometimes onboarding can be a challenge,” says Khashman. Further ensuring the company leadership can grow at the same rate as the company can pose an interesting challenge, in every aspect.

Khashman knows CEOs are driven to succeed for their teams, stakeholders, clients, and partners. Finding the right balance between driving the success of the organization and providing a relaxed environment to prevent burn out certainly makes the role of CEOs more interesting. Staying connected to the clients, partners, and employees at any given minute can be a struggle to find the time to unwind and unplug to keep themselves, and one’s organization, healthy and productive.

Words for Emerging Leaders

At the heart, ImagineSoftware’s core value is servant leadership. Each clients’ business challenges are unique making the selection of medical billing software a complicated process. To meet the needs of health organizations of all shapes and sizes, ImagineSoftware’s three areas of focus are medical billing solutions that cater to numerous specialties, exceptional implementation, and customer support. Much of ImagineSoftware’s growth over the years can be attributed to its dedication to customers. “We never forget who we work for. Without our clients, we’re just a software company. They are the reason we’re successful,” says Khashman.

In addition, he also states that one must practice a form of servant leadership and make sure that your words and actions match. Restate the vision statement as often as you can and ensure that the company values are in people’s hearts and minds, not just on the wall. Lead by example, be confident and trust your team. Course correct when necessary and always be open to feedback. Don’t become the bottleneck in making tough decisions but admit to yourself when you need help and then find it.

Effective Use of Technology

The key to a growth-oriented mindset is continuous learning. ImagineSoftware’s business is technology. “If we aren’t on the cutting-edge, we’re last in line,” asserts Khashman. He has been always intrigued by technological advancements, both current, and early stages. Technology touches every part of our daily lives and much like what we develop, it is designed to improve a process or enhance quality characteristics. Khashman makes it a priority to stay at the forefront of new technology to keep Imagine moving forward. With the rise of AI (and not just in healthcare but many other industries), people are becoming more reliant on the role technology will play. While it is important, and some would say a valid concern, Khashman doesn’t feel that technology will ever truly be able to replace the human component but instead, allow us to grow.
