Our Show and Event Services Business Development and Account Management team recently got together for our 2024 Sales Retreat in Dallas! Hear from two of our team members about why they loved our Sales Retreat and what it means for our customers:

" Attending the Sales Retreat was a valuable experience that deepened my understanding of Inspire’s core values. It was “inspiring” to see how these values are not just promises to clients but are actively integrated into day-to-day operations. I am excited about the prospect of aligning my work with Inspire’s values and applying them in all my interactions. This includes fostering strong relationships with both colleagues and clients, and truly embodying what Inspire stands for" - Yvonne Vega, Account Executive

"Meeting everyone and attending the Inspire Sales Retreat as a new team member offered me invaluable insights into the culture and core values that drive our broader team. I'm excited to embrace a growth mindset and apply our shared values to client engagements and to building meaningful relationships with clients and colleagues." - Tamara Allen, Business Development Manager

We are excited to see all that comes intro fruition as a result of our team's collaboration during the retreat, and to share it with all of you!
