Breakfast Briefing Recap

Thank you to everyone who attended September’s Breakfast Briefing on Company Culture! We had a great show of people despite the rainy morning, and engaged in a really interesting discussion about company culture. Thank you to our sponsor, Bernstein Shur, and to Don Oakes (Sea Bags), Debby Olken (KMA Human Resource Consulting), and Ann Freeman (Bernstein Shur) for being on the panel.
Let us know what topic you want to hear about next!
