This month, I hosted our Team Canada get together in Toronto, where we brought all our global purpose specialists (GPSs) from around Canada together with marketing to formulate our plans for the new fiscal year. While the planning is exciting, what gets me most excited is the opportunity to foster the culture of the company with our team, in person. Company culture has always been of paramount importance to us here at G Adventures, and it’s rewarding to come up with creative ways we can have fun together and engage with each other beyond just coming to work each day.
This year we went to a joint painting session, which was an awesome creative outlet. We also tried our hand at pasta making and attended the P!NK: Summer Carnival 2024 concert to let our hair down (for those of us who have hair!). These fun events brought out our creativity, and allowed us to open up our thinking to how we can engage more with our travel agent community.
We have so many fun things planned for the coming year that we hope many of you will experience. The biggest takeaway for many of us was the surprise of how artistic we all were, but for me it was less of a surprise. The thing is we all have creativity in us, we just need to allow ourselves the time to be creative.
At G Adventures, culture means feeling free to be who you are, and fostering a sense of inclusion and belonging for every single team member to be able to do their best work and shine free from judgement. AN ENGAGED, PASSIONATE TEAM .
