Well that will be us up there on the short list for best integrated campaign 👊 from the world renowned and prestigious The Drum Awards As part of our marketing transformation, 12 months ago we set ourselves an ambition to get some marketing swagger (aka a hefty gold embellishment for our newly installed and ambitiously big trophy cabinet). Not for the party (don’t get me wrong we like a party) but as recognition from industry gurus, creative pundits, marketing maestros that our work is as good as our customers (and our stats) say. Team… whether we win or not on the night it doesn’t matter. What matters is we are on our way and this recognition is the fuel we need for our onward journey. But for now “Cheers to us all’ 👏 #HiveHeros #WeveGotYourBack #BrilliantWork #MarketingSwagger

At our events agency, DEIB has always been top of mind. We're proud to be champions of DEIB, striving to incorporate these principles thoughtfully into everything we do. A prime example of this is a recent nationwide event campaign series we executed for a brand. The goal was to engage meaningfully with the Black and Latinx communities, and we knew that authenticity would be key to our success. To ensure we were truly connecting with these communities, we went beyond surface-level engagement. For each event in the series, we made a conscious effort to seek out venues owned by members of the Black and Latinx communities. This decision wasn't just about ticking a box, it was about creating a genuine, inclusive experience that resonated with our target audience. By choosing these venues, we not only supported local businesses within these communities but also created an environment where attendees felt truly seen and valued. This approach allowed us to foster a deeper connection between the brand and the communities we were engaging with. This example illustrates how we strive to thoughtfully integrate DEIB into our strategies and actions. It's not about grand statements—it's about keeping these principles at the forefront of our minds and consistently applying them in practical, meaningful ways. As we move forward, we remain committed to championing DEIB, always looking for innovative ways to create more inclusive, representative, and impactful experiences in all our endeavors. #leadership #DiversityInBusiness #BusinessExcellence

Today, I had the privilege of attending KML's Top 30 Under 30 Summit. Thank you The Westin Harbour Castle, Toronto and Sam for giving me and my colleagues this opportunity. And congratulations to Aaron for the well-deserved award! We're so proud of you! 🎉 I arrived already expecting to learn, but the panel sessions far exceeded my expectations. I'm excited to share my key takeaways: 📝"Diversity" extends beyond race, age, and gender orientation to include learning abilities. Most people who work in FOH are experiential learners, retaining information better through hands-on experience. Training should be tailored accordingly, rather than relying solely on PowerPoint slides or written materials. 📝Encourage every associate to collaborate and contribute to changes; give them a sense of purpose. 📝When hiring, shift the focus from "Will they stay?" to "How do we retain them?"; what we should be looking for, especially in the service industry, is Authenticity. 📝Going Green— This shouldn't mean taking away amenities or putting the burden on the guests in any way, it means offering an alternative. 📝Pre-Shifts— the hallmark of service excellence; setting the mood for associates and keeping them informed impacts guest's experiences more than you think.

It was great discussing with a diverse group of leaders on the topic "Scaling Organizational Productivity through Effective Employee Recognition Programs" Most of the meetings I attend usually involve people from tech startups, but this one brought together leaders from various industries and scales, which made the discussion even more enriching! Thanks TeamLease HCM, Amit Jain Krishan Kunal Bagoria Subhrodipto Bhattacharjee for arranging this.

A day or so in London, this time for the Events industry, Cross Association, DEI Working Group. People in the events world never cease to amaze me. How they can be unfazed by challenges, and deal with them with a confident smile and a plan almost as if the unexpected is expected. The fact that that it was also the first day for Catherine Beck as Chair of a large industry cross networking group when the main speaker is suddenly unable to attend, demonstrates not only her resourcefulness, but also that in their world there is no translation for the word crisis! There was so much to glean from the meeting. This is an industry going through change and it means doing something we focus on a lot in Mindsmith Thinking, changing perspective. It was great to hear how companies were improving, staffing to address the effects of the long hours culture,the way age and experience are viewed, and continuing to push the boundaries with flexible working and paternity leave. All necessary steps in an industry that has to be creatively focused on outcomes, but having a growing realisation that people organisations are having to become equally creative with the talent that produces them. The Chair concluded with the clarion call for "less talk, more action". This is a group where things will happen, in an industry in need of the ideas and support. A really productive meeting hosted at the New Scientist Building and thanks to the AEO Association of Event Organisers and ESSA team for making the arrangements.
