Latest News From #TeamSleek

August 2024

This month has been a dynamic blend of learning, celebration, and global expansion at Sleek. From an engaging offsite full of tailored 101 workshops and fun-filled team events to our ongoing commitment to sustainability and the exciting places we’ll be next month, we’re thrilled to share the latest updates with you.

Sleek Team 2024 Offsite: A Journey of Learning and Growth

Our recent three-day offsite wasn’t just about learning—it was also packed with fun and bonding! Alongside 101 Sessions and tailored workshops, we embraced our playful side with the Sleek Olympics, where team spirit and friendly competition took centre stage. We even held our very own Vibe Awards night, where everyone dressed up as their childhood dream occupations—talk about a trip down memory lane! We got creative with DIY tie-dye shirts, indulged in amazing food, and shared lots of laughter. It was the perfect blend of personal growth and team bonding, leaving us feeling inspired and ready for what’s next!

Jennifer Davidson Featured in The Times!

We are excited to share that our very own MD & Founder, Jennifer Davidson , has been featured in The Times as part of their “Where Are They Now” feature! Back in 2020, Jennifer was named one of the UK’s Top 50 most ambitious business leaders by LDC , and Sleek proudly ranked #19 on The Sunday Times Fast Track 100 list of fastest-growing companies—just before the COVID pandemic struck.

Jen reflects on the challenges and triumphs of the past few years, stating, “Having rebuilt Sleek, I am pleased to say today we are bigger, better, and stronger than before having undergone an Evolution earlier in the year.”

We are so proud of Jen and her incredible leadership, and we can’t wait to see what’s next for Sleek!

Sustainability Bootcamp: Committing to a Greener Future

This month, the Sleek team took part in a Sustainability Bootcamp hosted by our external consultancy, The Bulb (Part of Trivandi Group) , and a separate session with ISLA to learn all about their emissions tracking tool, Trace. We delved into new techniques for integrating sustainable practices into our events and operations, reinforcing our commitment to environmental responsibility.?

Jen from The Bulb said, “Thi and I had a wonderful time at Sleek's second training! The team was so engaged with questions, discussion, and laughter - it is clear they are eager to learn and incorporate sustainability into their work in a meaningful way. From finance to design, colleagues across Sleek's many departments had thoughtful and practical questions we were thrilled to answer. We are so excited to see where they take their new learnings!”

We're excited to start implementing these sustainable initiatives, and we want to hear from you! Are you also starting your sustainability journey? We’d love to hear your tips and ideas—let’s collaborate on making the world a more sustainable place.
