One of the ‘signals’ we live by at Deloitte is ‘celebrate and have fun’. On Thursday my project team went for a dinner to celebrate the successful completion of a large and intense project.
The food was good, the wine excellent, and the sommelier’s knowledge was impressive but it was a lot more than that which made this such an enjoyable occasion.
While working on an intense project you are put into a situation where you have to deal with complex problems and find a solution as a team. Working with a team of people who are dedicated, hard working, and all focused on providing the same solution makes the job so much easier.
We all enjoy each other’s company at work which brings no surprise that we have a great time together when we go out. This is really what made the dinner so enjoyable.
