The Fulton School
For the first week of our project, I spent every day in the office of CSI Commercial Services Inc. at their St. Louis location. This is the head branch for the entirety of the company and therefore handles the majority of the finances and organization. I spent the first two days working with president, Brad Earnhardt and learned the bird’s eye view of the entire operation. The following days I spend with three other faculty members including vice president, Shelly. During these visits, specifics filled in the initial information Brad had given me to help give me a better understanding on how all the departments were connected. I am excited to visit two more of their locations in May to compare management and communication.

When you were shadowing the president on your first couple of days what was the most important thing you learned from him?
How important it is to stay on top of everything and be aware of everything that is going on even if you are not directly involved. This way, if anything goes wrong, time is not wasted trying to understand what was going on in the first place.
Which location are you most excited about visiting?
Nashville for sure!
Does this spark any new interesting choices for your future career?
Were you given a lot of work to do within your time there or was it mostly just spent shadowing and trying to just understand how to functions that way?
It depended on the day, but on my second day with my uncle, he let me do things like payroll and deposits.
