With differing schedules, preferences, and ongoing projects in the mix, coordinating company-wide events—and ensuring they’re valuable—can be a challenge. After a decade of trialing new approaches to planning our all-hands meetings and collecting postliminary feedback, we’ve finally hit a sweet spot. We outline the practical tips and tricks we’ve accumulated over the years to empower your organization to host successful team events.
This May, we gathered in person for our annual team retreat, which was made extra special by celebrating Hencove’s 10th anniversary. To commemorate this milestone, we spent two days reflecting on our accomplishments, identifying growth opportunities, and learning about the importance of connections. After exploring the many facets of connectedness, we share three of our top takeaways from our retreat on what it means to be a good marketer, teammate, and leader.
In honor of National Superhero Day, we break down what it truly means to be a hero. From professional mentors to encouraging family members, we’re surrounded by our own everyday heroes, people who push us to be our best and lend a hand when we can’t quite get there. Pulling from the iconic comic characters who shaped the timeless archetype, we share a few valuable leadership lessons and explore how we can embrace them to become an everyday hero for others in our lives.
