Ready for the Superbowl? From all of tonight’s event-related content one could read these days, this is the piece that struck me most. Taking the entire staff -including interns, of course- to Vegas is a great way to acknowledge their hard work and contributions. After all, an organization's success is a collective effort, and celebrating as a team is crucial in building the culture that got you there, and that will guide you through those times in which you don´t make it to your own Superbowl. #teamworkmatters

Wow😳. This popped up on our fb feed. 7 years ago Scott and Hayden sitting on the roof of our downtown McKinney office having a cold one. Time is flying by. We’re thankful to reflect and know we had Hayden, with Matthew and Gloria interning, and the team is still together 7 YEARS later. We’ve expanding to Sydney and tripled in size since then. But the early years were productive and we still have clients from 7 years ago! #immigrationlaw #marketingagency #immigrationlawyer #immigrationnationpodcast

I'll be honest, I don't know if this is typical or not - my gut says no - but this is clearly a company that truly believes each of those people is part of the San Francisco 49ers team. They don't play on the field, but this shows these individuals that you believe their work helped the team accomplish its goals. And while I could be wrong, something tells me they do more things like this that we don't hear about. #teamwork #leadership #teamdevelopment #culture

This is a great example of inclusive organizational #leadership! While it’s not always possible to fly every FTE to every event, I applaud the 49ers for setting an example here — especially in the era of hyper-segmentation and favoritism amongst teams. Finding a way to acknowledge the contribution of all employees, whenever possible, goes a long way toward reducing silos, decreasing intra-office resentment, creating healthy workplace culture, and motivating folks to do their best work. #Superbowl #inclusion #culture #belonging

“Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity," said Seneca. It is tricky, tireless work to ensure a #familybusiness has the governance needed to preserve family harmony, AND run a great, enduring business for generations. It's a lot lot easier to align when the business is small, because those who needs to know are either in the break room or at the kitchen table. When you have grown into the #1 Refrigerated Tea Brand in America and the fastest growing lemonade like we have at Milo's Tea Company, Inc., it takes a thriving ecosystem of remarkable coaches, advisors, independent directors, and thoughtful TEAm members to drive exceptional governance. One big piece of governance is education and succession planning for NextGens and spouses that married in. So, when we were all in #Birmingham for Thanksgiving a few weeks ago, we hosted a Family Meeting with owners, spouses, and kids led by advisors and key TEAmmates. What do you do at a Family Meeting? Business, first, of course. We educate about our company, industry, and governance. This meeting, we enjoyed a plant tour of our #Homewood manufacturing and distribution center. Then, we met about the duties and responsibilities of ownership. We acknowledged that the duties for family members to interact with the business are even greater that other associates. And, we shared the reality that it's not just going to be "inherit," there has to be merit, hard work, and contribution to be ready, and to overcome assumptions that DNA got you a job, an internship, or an opportunity. Next up, had to be a little fun too so we headed to Topgolf for a some healthy competition on the course. (Yes, I lost 🤣 ). It's important to talk to kids early about family business because this is a very long journey. I'm not sure what will happen with my kiddos. But I am sure that it's the right thing to educate loudly, repeatedly, and early-on that with great opportunity comes even greater responsibility. If you're not ready when that opportunity comes, it will fly past you, especially if it is on a rocket ship like Milo's. What do you do to help yourself or others be game day ready if that opportunity comes? #BrewingALegacy #DrinkMilos Carlton Wallwork

Critical to have the one on one partner mentor and associate liason. A firm with a real interest in the summer student will have 20 minutes with the partner every day and at least a one hour session every week. Every summer student interested in business law should be on two deal teams at all times. Show you care.
We are thrilled to welcome our 2024 class of summer associates to the firm this week! Across our U.S. offices, Davis Polk’s summer associates will contribute to real client work, be mentored by a partner and an associate liaison, and complete immersive training programs, among many other valuable professional experiences. They will also enjoy an active calendar full of fun cultural and social events. We look forward to a fantastic summer!

Last Halloween I was working for a client in the West End. I walked into their office through a black and orange balloon tunnel, into a reception totally decorated for Halloween, a breakfast bar of Halloween treats, face painting and many people in costume… You get the picture! I was impressed by the effort and expense invested in this one day. The vibe was fun, engaging and energising. My son, who is on the autistic spectrum has recently started an apprenticeship in finance. At the weekend I casually asked is your office dressing up for Halloween. He looked horrified and replied with a series of questions. Is that a thing? Do I have to? Why? Organisations that do invest, time and money, in such events and initiatives (which I have always admired) do need to take into account the neurodiversity of their teams. What may appear to be fun and exciting to some is stressful, unnerving, and disruptive to others. It can quite easily make some team members feel more like “outsiders”, alienated and that they don’t fit in around here! More than ever “team building” initiatives need to be more diverse and inclusive. #inclusiveleadership #learninganddevelopment #leadershipdevelopment #employeeengagement #employeeexperience

This week has been incredible for Popcorn Kitchen Ltd and the team 😍🍿 One email, that’s all, the email stated ‘Congratulations, Popcorn Kitchen is a B Corp Corporation 😱. I had to pinch myself, Popcorn kitchen is a B Corp 🚀🫣🍿 When you’re a bustling challenger brand, success is often defined, not simply by the company you keep but the larger influence groups you become part of, which helps explain the immense sense of pride Popcorn Kitchen feels today having secured B-Corp status (June 24) to become part of an increasingly vocal 2,000 strong family of purpose-led businesses championing the very highest social, ethical and environmental standards. Our journey started in 2022, working with Paul Hargreaves CEO at Cotswold Fayre, a certified B Corporation who championed B Corp as a purpose led approach to running your business, I was hooked, a purpose led business, tell me more !!! As a small team, resource was always going to be an issue so in 2023 Jill Smith 🎁 told me about internships from Cranfield School of Management I put the wheels in motion and we were given the green light for two ( Vaisakh Kadesseriyil and Aditya Solanki ) MSc undergraduates in Business Management to undertake a four month internship to lay out the foundations for Popcorn Kitchen’s bid aided and abetted by the indomitable Andy Hawkins Hawkins (B-Corp ambassador) and the irrepressible Elizabeth Tate Tate (B-Corp consultant) who joined forces with the Popcorn Kitchen team, including Sorrell Cowen from Reewild to begin off-setting our carbon footprint and to ensure no stone was left unturned in the quest for B-Corp acceptance. A huge thank you to : Paul Hargreaves Vaisakh Kadesseriyil Aditya Solanki Andy Hawkins Sorrell Cowen Elizabeth Tate ( lilly) Jill Smith 🎁 Adam Peasey To all our suppliers who’s support has been invaluable on our B Corp journey 🙏🍿thank you 🤩 For a community-orientated business like Popcorn Kitchen it’s an unwritten rule that bottom line growth is mirrored by a greater commitment to Caring Capitalism and within food and drink circles B-Corp status is very much the gold standard! If you are thinking about B Corp but feel slightly daunted about the challenge, there are a plethora of people who can support you on this journey. As a huge advocate of B Corp you can add me to the list 🚀🤩🌳 Drop me a note at: [email protected] Happy to help 💕🍿 Louise x

Our interns had a chance to ask a group of CHS leaders some questions at our headquarters in Inver Grove Heights, Minn., in a recent panel event. Mary Kaul-Hottinger, Gary Halvorson, Rick Dusek, and Brandon Smith met with summer interns, both in-person and virtually. The discussion covered a variety of topics including: setting career goals, receiving feedback, culture and employee retention and more. "Always be willing to change. Look at the possibilities. Have agility and adaptability. That's the future; things change fast." - Kaul-Hottinger "At a company like ours, you can start in one place and follow a passion to other places that might feed a curiosity or help with your professional development... Challenge yourself and chase your passions. It's all fuel for a career." - Halvorson "Try different experiences to help you figure out what you like and if the company is where you'd want to grow your career. Always be learning and meeting people." - Dusek "There's always cycles in business, good and bad. Be known as a person that leans in, asking ‘How can I help?' People will remember those tough times and how you showed up as a leader to help." - Smith #CHSIncIntern

What are Derek Galvan's key takeaways from transitioning from intern to full-time employee at Whittier Trust? Derek highlights the importance of being open-minded and acknowledging that you won't know everything. There are so many professionals at Whittier Trust with extensive experience to learn from who always have their door open for questions. Derek also mentions that Whittier Trust offers significant opportunities to gain invaluable technical skills while understanding the importance of emotional intelligence -- a critical skill in a company that prioritizes customer service and relationships.
