Adrienne Rosen, President and CEO

Adrienne has been the Captain at First International Courier since she, Myra White and Helen Mills founded the company in 1984. A strong proponent of “cross training,” Adrienne believes that everyone in the company should know how to perform most operational and administrative duties and that “everyone should be able to drive a truck.” She has developed a quality assurance system for First International Courier that is based on a systematized quality model with a dialectical substrate.

“Quality, as a notion, concept or service is never complete.  There is always a better way of doing something.  We must continue to strive for excellence in customer service.”

 
  Myra White, Vice President and CFO
 
  Myra has worked from the inception of the company to build the company’s systems and designs to ensure accuracy.  She has designed KPI programs and other performance metrics that are customer friendly.  In addition, Myra manages all financial departments of the company.  “Clients deserve to have the data they require delivered in a medium they understand.”
