WorkSmart strives to be the premier provider in Information Technology services. With colleagues like Rick, this initiative is possible.

“Rick Henson has great customer service skills and all of our clients love to work with Rick. He also provides back office support to many of our consultants and knowledge and skill helps WorkSmart keep thousands of computers, servers and backup devices running correctly.” – Greg Miller, WorkSmart’s General Manager of the Charlotte Operations.

Rick is an extremely important member of the WorkSmart team. Although he sits in the Charlotte office, Rick often collaborates with our Durham Support Center team. His colleagues describe his as dependable and dedicated, especially since he is always in the office early and works late – and then brings work home with him. Rick was a member of Carolina Technology Solutions’ team for just short of three years when the company was acquired by WorkSmart in April of 2009.

“Rick understands that delivering industry leading customer service and support is paramount in the company’s success. It is clear that he is a leader in executing on this initiative of WorkSmart’s.” – Scott Ashley, WorkSmart Business Advisor
