Friday Lunch
Project 365 – Day 37
I have mentioned in a prior post the organization in which I work being very much like a “start -up”. We are <100 employees with a common purpose covering all aspects of a cloud-based business – sales, marketing, operations, IT, R&D, product management, customer care, business development, and finance. We are an independent division and culture, yet inside the 4 walls of a large fortune 500 company with 26,000 employees.
One of the things I’ve enjoyed is Friday catered lunches, where the entire team enjoys casual time together. We often have an “all hands” meeting for 20 minutes of the lunch hour, sharing news, products, and inspiration. As a result, virtually everyone stays in tune with priorities and goings on across the business.
Small team, large purpose and impact. Perhaps setting the tone and positively reshaping the future of NCR, a huge global enterprise that touches virtually every country in the world.
“Our purpose is to help small and medium business owners achieve their goals.”

That’s awesome!! I’d love the intimacy of such a small team. Although my team is much smaller, we all work remotely in different parts of the country and the desk space I use when I am in the office is part of a larger group that I have no interaction with. It’s cool to meet other people but no one to commiserate with over the job. 🙂
