Our team has grown quite a bit, especially within the last year. We now have a team of seven, and we plan to continue growing. A fun fact, we actually had our first-ever, in-person team meetup. You see, even though the main team is located in the D.C. area, we all work remotely.

Earlier this week we made it a point to connect. We planned a lunch and a team event, and both were successful. It really helped get us all engaged and recharged, now we’re a well-oiled machine all moving in the same direction.

We decided to make this a real team-building experience. An event where we had to use our noggins for strategy (and fun). Naturally, our team went full force and we booked an escape room at PanIQ Escape Room. Together we escaped with a few minutes to spare. Though it may not be a traditional team building experience, it really did make us work together and it was an awesome icebreaker โ€“ so if you have a smaller team like ours, perhaps you should try it out.
