At the 2026 TSi Family Reunion in Orlando, we had the privilege of recognizing one exceptional employee-owner with one of the highest honors our company bestows: the TSi President’s Award.
Presented annually by Executive Chairman Darryl Keeler and President & CEO Wayne Smith, this award recognizes a 10+ year employee-owner who exemplifies an unwavering commitment to customer service, integrity, leadership, and the principles of F.O.C.U.S.™ (For Our Clients’ Ultimate Satisfaction).
This year’s recipient is Nytee Laidler, Senior Manager, Logistics, celebrating 23 years of service with TSi.
Nytee is the kind of leader every organization hopes to have. She leads by example, approaches every challenge with integrity, and consistently puts the needs of her teammates and clients first. Her dedication to doing the right thing, commitment to excellence, and the respect she has earned throughout the organization make her a true reflection of what it means to be an employee-owner.
“Nytee represents the very best of TSi,” said Wayne Smith, President & CEO. “For more than two decades, she has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to our clients, our culture, and her fellow employee-owners. She leads with integrity, serves with humility, and sets an example that inspires those around her. We are proud to recognize her with this year’s President’s Award.”
Upon receiving the award, Nytee shared:
“I’m incredibly humbled to work side by side with some of the most talented people in the industry. They are the people who encourage me to be my best self every single day. To serve with gratitude and grace has always been my unspoken mantra. No matter the role or challenge I’ve been asked to take on over the years, I’ve always approached it with an ‘I will conquer this’ mentality. My hope is that this mindset is contagious and spreads throughout our organization. To everyone who has congratulated me, I sincerely thank you, and I look forward to many more years of service alongside this amazing team.”
Congratulations, Nytee, and thank you for 23 years of extraordinary service, leadership, and dedication to the values that make TSi such a special company. Your impact on our clients, our employee-owners, and our culture will be felt for years to come.
