A great article from Jen (Gilhoi) Veralle of ZERO PROOF COLLECTIVE. "In 2024, there are so many great corporate gifting solutions and companies offering customization and fulfillment — gifts that are not rooted in alcohol consumption. Aligning your gift of choice with your brand and a social good mission can be a good starting point."

Seeking to give gifts to your employees or clients this corporate gift-giving season? Alcohol through the ages has been held in high regard. In our culture, alcohol is associated with celebration, rewards, and a specialness. Not only in our personal lives, where we socialize with friends and family, but in the workplace. Perhaps this year, Corporate America, we can consider the negative impact of corporate gifting that centralizes alcohol and instead gift an inclusive, healthier offering as token of appreciation this holiday season and beyond. Read up on all the reasons to not gift alcohol in my share here on All Inclusive Corporate Gifting. https://lnkd.in/gFWsJnPi As you revisit gifting and if you're drawn to gifting a thoughtful, crafted beverage experience, see Equal Parts Cocktail Company. I'm excited to be collaborating with founder Simeon Priest as their cocktail kits don't include alcohol, rather, they're celebratory, shareable and anyone choosing not to drink can enjoy nonalcoholic beverage excellence! PS. they also offer virtual and in-person cocktail classes that can be nonalcoholic focused. 🍹 🥃 🎁 #corporategifting #bestcorporategifts #workplaceculture

A new episode of the Sober Positive Workplace is here! Heather Lowe of Ditched the Drink helps us navigate the nuances of navigating non-alcoholic options. Some highlights include: *Explore non-alcoholic beverage options that feel right for you without pressure to replicate alcoholic drinks. *Be mindful of your responses and triggers when trying new non-alcoholic experiences, and don't hesitate to opt-out if it doesn't feel comfortable. *Consider different entry points to exploring your relationship with alcohol, whether it's moderation, abstinence, or something in between. #soberpositiveworkplace #showupandstayorg #ditchedthedrink #alcoholfree #sobriety https://lnkd.in/diaF2Taf
