As the year draws to a close, we had the incredible opportunity to come together as a team for our company conference and end of year celebrations at the Vibe Hotel in Melbourne. This annual gathering is more than a chance to reflect on the business; it’s about celebrating our people and the journey we’ve taken together.
For a company with a remote-first, hybrid workforce, these moments are precious. Despite the challenges of working from different locations, this workshop allowed us to come together, not just to talk about work but to focus on the broader vision: our business, our people, and how we’re growing together.
What We Discussed
1. Leveraging AI in Our Workforce
A thought-provoking session on how AI can enhance productivity, streamline workflows, and complement the human expertise that drives our success, led by our CTO Mike Smith
2. Building Strength and Resilience in Remote Work
With the rise of hybrid and remote working, we explored practical ways to maintain resilience, manage challenges, and create healthy work-life boundaries, led by Kate Thomas.
3. Culture, Behaviour and Team Collaboration
We dove into what makes our culture unique, identifying behavioural signposts that align with our values and discussing how we can work better as interconnected teams, led by our MD Alex Zacher
4. Year in Review and What’s Ahead
Our Senior Leadership Team presented a comprehensive review of the year, highlighting milestones and successes while offering a glimpse into our exciting plans for next year.
Celebration and Connection
Our two-day conference and workshops ended on a high note with drinks and celebrations, overlooking the stunning Melbourne cityscape. It was a moment to honour our collective achievements and reconnect with colleagues in person—a rare and cherished opportunity for a remote-first team.
Why This Matters
Workshops like these remind us that we’re not just employees—we’re a community. Our business thrives because of our people, and it’s essential to take time to reflect, share, and celebrate. This year, we’ve learned, grown, and achieved so much together.
As we look ahead to 2025, we’re excited for the opportunities that lie ahead. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who made this workshop such a meaningful experience.
Here’s to continuing to grow and succeed—together.
