Recently, the Chartis team had the pleasure of hosting an all-company onsite in beautiful Montreal. As a remote company, the opportunity to come together in person was exhilarating and invaluable. The few days we spent together were a perfect blend of productive meetings and enjoyable bonding activities.
Montreal Was the Perfect Choice
We’ve created a wonderful tradition of hosting on-site’s at new locations each time, and Montreal was the latest to join the list with destinations like New Orleans and Miami. With its rich cultural diversity and vibrant atmosphere, Montreal provided the perfect backdrop for our all-company onsite. The city’s blend of historic charm and modern amenities offered endless opportunities for exploration and bonding. Known for its world-class dining and vibrant arts scene, Montreal provided plenty of venues to relax and connect outside our formal meetings.
Enhancing Our Capabilities to Meet Client Needs
Our meeting sessions were not just discussions, but strategic conversations that shape our future. We started with a comprehensive review of the business, a crucial step in aligning our current standing and future direction. We then delved into our capabilities and services, exploring how to continuously adapt to meet our clients’ evolving needs in the dynamic digital landscapes. This conversation was not just important, but vital in ensuring that we remain at the forefront of industry standards and client expectations, a goal we all share. We’ve had so much to celebrate since AdWeek named us the 10th fastest-growing agency, and there is no better way than to do it in person.
Enabling Career Progression and Success
Career development was another key focus area. We are deeply committed to the growth and success of our team members, and it was inspiring to discuss various pathways for career advancement. By focusing on personal and professional growth, we ensure that our team not only meets but exceeds client needs, maintaining our reputation for excellence.
One of the highlights of our onsite was the featured showcases. It was a proud moment to see the incredible projects our team has delivered, reinforcing the high caliber of our work. These showcases provided a platform for learning and inspiration, sparking new ideas and innovations and also touched on topics outside of work like passions for motorcycle racing. The breakout sessions were particularly dynamic, offering a space for brainstorming and collaboration. These sessions allowed us to tap into the collective creativity of our team, generating fresh ideas and solutions that we can bring to our clients.
Strengthening Bonds Beyond the Screen
Spending time together in Montreal outside of the company meetings was incredibly fun and rewarding. It was fantastic to finally meet new faces in person and reconnect with others. Exploring the vibrant city, sharing delicious meals, and engaging in various activities allowed us to bond in ways that virtual meetings can’t replicate. As our team continues to grow, these moments of connection and camaraderie are invaluable, strengthening our relationships and enhancing our collaborative spirit.
Taking time to meet in person as a group is invaluable. It strengthens our relationships, fosters deeper connections, and enhances our collaborative spirit. These face-to-face interactions allow us to bond beyond our professional roles, creating a cohesive and motivated team. As we continue to grow and evolve, these in-person gatherings remain essential in maintaining our strong company culture and driving our collective success.
