Before we turn the calendar to 2025, we're taking a look at some of our favorite photos from 2024. Many of them are essentially the same picture — our team members happily spending time together. Working, playing, volunteering. Making a difference for our customers and communities. Making great memories together.
Teamwork: It’s hard to define, even harder to quantify, but you know it when you see it. And it’s more than just a warm feeling. Teamwork is what makes us greater than the sum of our parts. It’s what brings out the best in each of us and makes us better than we would ever be on our own. Because our team is counting on us. As much as we’re counting on them.
With Trimble on your team, you’ve got more than technology solutions. You’ve got the confidence to turn data into decisions, resources into results, and possibilities into profits. So take a look through these pictures with us. This is your team, too. We look forward to supporting each other’s success in the new year and beyond!

Do you tell your clients why you're out of the office?
I tend to do it, even though I know I don't have to. I feel like it helps maintain expectations. But sometimes I wonder if I’m over-sharing. Like, do they really need to know I’m out because I'm volunteering at my kids school?
On the flip side, I think it helps humanize us as professionals. We’re not robots; we have lives, families, and sometimes we just need a break.
What do you all think? Do you share the reasons behind your out-of-office status with your clients? Or do you keep it vague and professional? Would love to hear your thoughts and experiences!

If you want to grow your organization and impact without burning out then you have to think about how increase the return-on-investment for your time and effort.
Think of creating flywheels inside your organization:
A process that produces outcomes without as much direct input from you and your team.
Here’s an example of a flywheel to get your juices flowing!
Volunteer Engagement and Retention Flywheel
➡️ Initial Effort: Creating meaningful volunteer opportunities that align with the needs of the organization and the skills and interests of volunteers.
💥 Momentum Build: Providing a meaningful volunteer experience that includes appreciation, personal transformation, and a sense of community.
🚀 Acceleration: Excited volunteers become organizational ambassadors, attracting more volunteers through their networks and testimonials.
🔥 Sustained Growth: Each spin of the flywheel expanse your volunteer base, providing more capacity to run excellent programs, which in turn, provides more opportunities for meaningful volunteer experiences.

In another thread, the question was posed "How do you create team-building activities?"
My answer:
Vulnerabilities.
With each weekly meeting, I get in early and chat with the other early-arrivers. It's always about something not work-related, where I found myself in a situation where I messed up, or was confused, or found out that I was wrong.
It shows the early-arrivers that I'm vulnerable, that I have a sense of humor, and, most importantly, that I'm human.
Then, when the meeting starts, I try to have a "break-the-ice" round-robin of shared experiences.
I ask people to share something that takes them, for example, right back to childhood. I don't go first for that one, but I try to go no more than third.
THEN, I tell a story (from dozens I have in my memories) about how a smell, or a song, or a picture takes me back to something locked into my childhood experiences. And how traveling so far back gives me a touchpoint into who I used to be, compared to who I am now.
Forget ice-breakers where people share their favorite sports team. Ask them questions that touch upon their very humanity... and celebrate the diversity that manifests, along with how we are, despite being different, at heart all looking for the same things.

Building strong teams requires more than just technical skills. What’s your go-to team-building activity?
I am a firm believer that team-building is a continuous effort that should be facilitated by leadership. It should include in-office interactions (or virtual interactions during work hours) as well as after-hours business-sponsored fun nights, and should also include group learning and volunteering opportunities guided around the group's interests.
One virtual team I led, we would do a monthly virtual lunch and learn and we would pay for their meal to be delivered. We also had a weekly movie night where we would all get together and watch a movie through Zoom (the company sent a monthly snack pack customized to each team member.) We had a monthly game night where we would play jackbox games.
We let each team member pick a cause dear to their heart and once a month we would dedicate half a workday for the team to go and volunteer in their area at something like what that team member selected. For example, on team member was really into animal rescue so on her month, we all went to volunteer at our local ASPCA or for the local shelter, or for a local rescue organization. We all shared pictures of our various volunteering experiences.
We had a "water cooler" channel on Slack for just chit-chatting and for meme wars. We would often have "open office hours" where a zoom video was started and anyone who wanted to work in a shared space could hop in.
I can't always get that much support from corporate but I find ways to supplement and provide these experiences and while no one is required to do all or any of them, they do get rewarded (in treats, pay, or freebies) if they do choose to participate.
