On today's edition of Up To Speed, host Raquel Wilson shared an episode centered around gratitude and reflecting on what it is we're thankful for. Raquel shared how our Chief Human Resources Officer, Sam Hammock, shared a note recognizing and thanking the V Team for their hard work throughout the year - within the note she gave V Teamers an opportunity to share a word of thanks to a fellow V Teamer by leaving a comment below her note. So many of you wrote about the gratitude you felt for your teammates and Verizon family. https://www.verizon.com/about/news/speed-november-22-2022

This new approach to dispute management was recognized as an award-winning initiative in Enterprise Transformation by the Blockchain Research Institute's Web3 & Blockchain Transformation Awards (W3B Awards). Leveraging Hyperledger Fabric technology, this new technology utilizes core functionalities of blockchain that promoted transparency, decentralization, and enforcement, and thereby increased trust among partners. With this Distributed Ledger Technology, Verizon's innovation team transformed an inconsistent, inefficient and labor intensive billing dispute process involving wholesale partners into a self-sustaining rules based dispute settlement solution. The result is an increase in cash flow, operational costs savings and quicker realization of revenue - a win-win for the business and partners alike. https://www.verizon.com/about/news/verizon-recognized-dispute-management-blockchain -- (Please remove QRM to write to Bill directly)

My name is Kelsey Davis. I am a creator, I am an entrepreneur, and in everything I do, I strive to serve others as a bridge. Last month, I had the opportunity to travel across America with AT&T to learn more about the digital divide, which results in three in 10 Americans not having access to the information they need to thrive. During this campaign I witnessed firsthand the impact that can be created for the world when people are offered a "bridge to possibility". https://about.att.com/blogs/2022/davis-digital-divide-docuseries.html
