At Envol, we LOVE to celebrate our achievements and say thank you – especially during our Monday meetings! It’s a great way to start off our week, especially now that we’re all working from home (and we hope you are too because of #COVID19). When working remotely, not everyone can see what we have done and celebrate our efforts. Therefore, we believe that it’s important to recognize our team’s hard work and dedication every single week!

For one, what if we told you that the “new normal” was built on mass collaboration, diversity, collective intelligence, and explicit commitment-making?
We’ve all seen the meme; a parent on a video conference call while her two children are taped to the floor with the caption, “Working from home during COVID-19!”
We chuckle to ourselves and say, “YUP” as we continue to scroll. But as funny as the meme is, this is a stark reality for most parents navigating childcare, home schooling, and working during COVID-19.
Attracting and hiring the right people to join your team is challenging, but finding that star candidate is such a relief! The hard work is over now, right?
