PeopleUnboxed

Last week we celebrated our most successful year to date with a trip to London! Over some very funky cocktails we reflected on our highlights of 2024 and also what we’re looking forward to focusing on in 2025! Thank you to everyone who has supported us this year and we look forward to making a difference together next year. Enjoy your festive breaks!

Leadership for Loafers We had an incredible couple of days delivering leadership skills to two different Loaf cohorts. The group was highly engaged, open and brought so much value to the session. We tackled some big leadership topics, including: emotional intelligence, psychological safety, delegation, feedback and coaching. It was brilliant to see how much they took away to support their roles. Some of the key takeaways included: - recognising your saboteurs and tackle them head-on with practical tips - managing people based on their development stage - separating motivational from developmental feedback for clarity and impact The energy, vulnerability, and dedication they brought to the table really made this session something special. #LeadershipDevelopment #Leadership #MakeADifference ID 1: One of the cohorts from the Leadership for Loafers programme.

Last week we’ve donned our festive knitwear for Christmas Jumper Day 2024 – proving that we’re 'woolly' serious about spreading cheer and making a difference! Not only did we have a tree-mendously fun time embracing the holiday spirit, but we also came together to support Save the Children, helping create lasting change for children across the UK and beyond. #ChristmasJumperDay #ChristmasJumper #Christmas #SaveTheChildren IDs: Jo Morgan, Westy, Rich, Arlene and Rachel wearing their Christmas jumpers, from the waist up.

"Thank you for giving the team an afternoon that I'm sure will be hard to top and be talked about for years!" We recently delivered our break the box team building session for the fantastic team at Entain, where in smaller groups the teams came together to bring their newly created values to life. The day’s focus? Collaborating, problem-solving, and ultimately winning together. Judging by the energy and some friendly (but fierce!) competition, it’s safe to say they didn’t hold back. It was inspiring to see the values they’ve crafted in action – and with plenty of smiles along the way! A big well done to the Entain team for embracing the spirit of teamwork and making the day such a success. #TeamBuilding #BreakTheBox #MakeADifference ID 1 and 2: Break the box Entain groups who came in first and second place.
