LISLE, Illinois — Synergy Solution Group is thrilled to announce John Kotek of LMS as the winner of the 2024 Best Idea Challenge, held during Synergy’s Executives Forum in November. This unique competition featured ten outstanding ideas from Synergy members, with attendees voting to determine the most impactful and innovative submission.
John’s winning idea, the Uber Ride Home program, captivated voters with its practicality and emphasis on employee well-being. The program, inspired by Harrison Energy Partners (HEP), ensures employees have access to safe transportation home in unexpected situations, reflecting LMS’s dedication to fostering a supportive workplace culture.
As part of the award, John received $4,000 to donate to a charity of his choice. He selected The Harrison House, a non-profit in Little Rock, Arkansas, that provides low-cost shelter to kidney and heart transplant and cancer patients and their families during medical appointments.
“Harrison Energy Partners (HEP) are my friends and the company I learned the idea of Uber Ride Home for associates. I would like to donate the $4,000 in their honor and gratefulness to them for sharing and getting my associates home safe over the last decade,” said John.
The Uber Ride Home program and John’s generous donation exemplify the core values of collaboration, community, and giving back that define Synergy members. The Executives Forum, and the Best Idea Challenge in particular, highlight the power of shared learning and innovation to strengthen businesses and uplift communities.
