Leadership isn’t always loud. Sometimes it shows up in the details: in the systems improved, the teams empowered, and the steady drive to do better every day. 

In June, we put the spotlight Anthony Idolor, our Accounts Payable Team Lead, whose dedication to excellence and team development has made a lasting impact at Intelassist. 

Anthony plays a crucial role in our Financial Operations department, leading a team responsible for invoice processing, payment management, compliance, and reporting. 

“I enjoy my job most when I’m helping the team grow professionally,” Anthony shares. “Watching them build their skills and achieve their goals is incredibly fulfilling. I’m most inspired when we work through tough challenges together.” 

One standout achievement in Anthony’s journey was leading the automation of a once time–consuming, error–prone consolidated invoice processing system. By implementing a Power BI solution to auto–generate invoice details, Anthony and his team significantly cut down on manual work and improved accuracy. “That project taught me there’s always room to improve. You just have to stay open to learning and proactive in making change happen.” 

That drive for innovation is matched by Anthony’s commitment to Intelassist’s values. Integrity, transparency, and accountability are cornerstones of how he works and how he leads. “I make sure financial transactions are processed honestly and accurately. It builds trust within our team and with our clients.” 

Anthony credits much of his professional growth to the mentorship of Senior Operations Manager Renz Alvaran and Country Manager Cherrie Salazar, who have helped shape his leadership style. “They’ve guided me through complex situations and taught me the importance of leading with. empathy and integrity. Their belief in continuous development has pushed me to always keep growing.” 

Outside of work, Anthony recharges by spending quality time with loved ones and exploring new places. “Travel and experiencing new cultures give me a fresh perspective,” he says. “It helps me come back to work reenergized.” He also makes sure to draw clear lines between personal and professional time, something he believes is key to avoiding burnout. 

And here’s a fun fact: Anthony can do manicures, pedicures, and even nail extensions! “I was forced to learn to save money,” he laughs. (Multi–talented is an understatement.) 

For new employees just starting their Intelassist journey, Anthony offers this advice: “Stay positive and adaptable. Ask for feedback. And build strong relationships. You’ll find support and opportunities in places you don’t expect.”
