LIFE AT WONSULTING

FROM ONLINE TO IN-PERSON

‍

Want to hear some exciting news?

‍

Last month, some of our leadership team took things to a whole new level with an EPIC company off-site event! 🎉💼

‍

‍

You heard it right – 6 of us traded our virtual screens for the real deal, in-person interactions! It was a thrilling journey from pixels to faces, from emojis to actual laughter, and from typing away to high-fives and handshakes! 🤝😄

‍

We brainstormed, strategized, and collaborated like never before. The team spirit was off the charts, and the results were outstanding 🚀🌈

‍

So, if you're wondering what a company off-site can do, let us tell you - it's a game-changer! Our leadership team was fueled with creativity, strengthened their bonds, and set the stage for even greater achievements in the future.

‍

And of course, what’s a company off-site without a little fun?

‍

We also learned a few unique talents from our leadership team!

‍

‍

Daniel, our Customer Success Specialist, can rap and sing.

‍

Radu, our Developer, can learn a new skill FAST (in this case, ax throwing).

‍

Katie, our Senior Marketing Manager, is a wine connoisseur and ping pong master.

INDUSTRY INSIGHT

Navigating the Future - Spotlight on Green Energy

‍

The UN has an ambitious plan to achieve net zero emissions by 2050 🌿 

That’s just 27 years away!

Why did they create this plan?

Because over time, our actions as humans, like burning fossil fuels and releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, have caused the planet to heat up and change our climate.

The net zero emissions goal means that we want to make sure we’re not putting more greenhouse gases into the air than we take out. It’s like keeping everything in balance so that we don’t add to the problem of climate change 🌎

And many other countries worldwide have signed up to be part of that mission.

So what does that mean for you?
