Motivation Monday: Gratitude
We say we are in the business of making connections, which happens to involve corporate meetings and events. As we consider all the things for which we are grateful, it's the relationships we have forged over the years that top our list. Systems may frustrate us, and machines may break, and technology mail fail, but the shared threads of humanity that weave us together is truly a marvel we appreciate daily. We see the distances from which people can travel, the myriad of challenges they overcome to reach their destinations, and the extraordinary coordination and intention driving them... all to meet one another, person to person.
Thank you for inviting us into your corporate stories, which are, after all, human stories.
"Take one thing with another, and the world is a pretty good sort of a world, and 'tis our duty to make the best of it and be thankful.”
