Tis’ the Season of Thanks!

by Nov 23, 2022

It’s the season of thanks and we want to recognize everyone we’re thankful for!

We are so thankful to our clients, friends, families, pets, and awesome blog readers like you! We are thankful you take the time to read our content, and even more importantly, deliver on positive and thriving workplaces in your own ways. We are thankful for anyone who believes in our mission to create happy and thriving workplaces. 

We also want to give a huge shout out to our partners who, like us, are working to make a positive difference in the world, one of whom is Mindletic.

 

 

Mindletic is focused on bringing wellness to employees’ fingertips through a digital mental gym. They work with organizations of all sizes to help their employees increase their mental fitness and psychological resilience.

Lastly, we are so thankful to have each other here at Civility Partners. We consider each member of our team passionate, hardworking, and collaborative. We are unique individuals with our own strengths, but one thing we all have in common is that we are dedicated to the work we do. Each one of us truly embodies our core value, “Be Extraordinary.” 

 

Cheers to a safe and happy holiday season!
