Meet N Greet

Welcome back. You belong here.

A new idea we're putting into place in May is a Meet-N-Greet for new artisans (not the coolest name). Usually, people that join our creative team get to know the leaders and each other pretty organically which is the best way.

But I also think it's good to do something semi-casual, where we can meet each other, ask questions, have a few drinks, a few laughs, go through the basic vision of the team and answer any questions the new artisans might have.

This allows the new people to meet the existing group in a bit more formal yet still casual way.

Have a great day.
Into the future,

I Could Be Totally Wrong

Welcome back. You belong here.

When collaborating with creative types it's very important (especially if you are the default team leader), to let everyone know you could be wrong. Sometimes a person can express an opinion that can hurt other people's feelings or quench the creative process.

Adding a phrase like "you know I could be totally wrong here" can help keep lines of communication open.

Have a great day,

Into the future,
