As we near our 9th anniversary of designing and building custom software applications, we’d like to say thank you for letting us develop your ideas and innovations over the past almost-decade!
Each year we love featuring our Chronicle, a look at the previous year’s growth and vision of where we’re headed in the new year. But for 2021, we wanted to make a special call-out for our Crew Ops team.
In a year of – wait for it – unprecedented changes, every industry across the globe is facing a recruitment dilemma. The work that goes into HR and recruiting is hard and far too often unseen. That's why we're highlighting the incredible work our Crew Ops team of Kathleen Robinson has achieved.

The Crew Ops team also has the following stats and achievements in 2021:

DEI: Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
DEI stands for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion and typically includes initiatives and policies aimed to increase and promote the representation of different groups. DEI has become a crucial, transformational element in the workplace as well as within our society.
2021 marks a milestone in Airship’s journey to become a more diverse and inclusive company. We've learned a lot over the years, and especially in 2020. The past year showed us that empathy alone isn't enough - it requires action. We hope this report reflects Airship’s progress on diversity to date, as well as our commitment to driving real, lasting change for our crew members, customers, and communities.
