The kind of greatness where team members contribute maximum value and are recognized for their efforts. The kind of greatness that makes the impossible, possible.

Greatness Enabled

In 2010, my team and I conceptualized, planned, and executed our companies 2nd ever user conference. The event included detail logistics plans, program development (breakouts sessions and keynotes), company-wide resource allocation, and a big product announcement. Each member of the event team was given a role and responsibility. This ownership provided synergy as we set forth to make the conference a success.

The conference, like any major event, carried with it a lot of moving parts, there were some obstacles and challenges we had to overcome. As a team, we confronted each challenge with determination to succeed.

The "Triumph" Feeling

After the end of each day at the conference, we gathered around as a team and talked about the successes that each team member had for the day. This created a "Triumph" feeling, a feeling of success as we recognized and celebrated the wins of the day. The success of the conference was because of teamwork. Our team in marketing and across the company worked in tandem to make sure that our clients and prospective clients were well taken care of during the conference.
