LeadingIT Celebrates 10 Years of Service in Chicagoland

LeadingIT Team - Chicago, Illinois

CHICAGO, Ill., Oct 12, 2020 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- LeadingIT, a friendly technology and cybersecurity support firm, started with no clients and zero dollars. For the first 8-10 months, Stephen Taylor, our CEO, worked on reaching out to as many people as possible, offering and telling them what he could do. The few who saw value in our offerings signed up as clients. With sheer determination and dedication, he spent the first year trying to build the business.

Our official start date was October 15, 2010, and we have experienced steady growth since our establishment. Currently, we serve 2,800 end users from our 90 regular clients. Stephen Taylor currently relies on his team to enable and empower him to do more. With our 10th anniversary coming up on October 15, 2020, we look at the steps we've taken in service delivery.

The Major Impact Factor

Looking back over the last ten years, Stephen Taylor believes that hard work and dedication have fueled much of our success. Entrepreneurs should learn how to level up themselves and get out of their comfort zone to achieve their goals. Business owners who try to manage everything in their businesses can quickly become a stumbling block to their success.

Stephen Taylor has delegated most roles and gotten out of the way, showing immense trust in his team's ability and judgment. Thanks to his team, he can focus more on the company's bigger vision as they take care of the technical roles and the daily tasks. Taking risks and doing things that challenge you can also make a difference as an entrepreneur.

National Cybersecurity Awareness Month

We're also excited to share our anniversary alongside National Cybersecurity Awareness Month (NCSAM), which is in its 17th year of existence. According to CISA.gov(*Note 1), this year's theme, "Do Your Part. #BeCyberSmart," encourages organizations to become intentional about enhancing cybersecurity. NCSAM emphasizes that individuals should take personal responsibility in protecting their cyberspace.

Developing Future Leaders

Two IT students benefit from our $250 scholarship every year, one in fall and the other during spring. With these scholarship funds, students can pay for their tuition fees and buy relevant books. Interested applicants can visit the McHenry County College Foundation Scholarship Program website to apply before the set deadlines.

Giving Back to The Community

Every year, LeadingIT takes part in Extra Life (*Note 2), a nonprofit organization that collects funds for a local children's hospital. You can play games on their website, then collect and earn pledges that go to charity. Extra Life has raised over $70 million since its inception in 2008. Now, they are running the COVID-19 Impact Fund for sick and injured kids.
