  • Range of Motion Project Social Media: Engaging audiences, including a memorable moment with MrBeast!
  • Mark Schonwetter Holocaust Education Foundation Board Development: Welcomed Claudia Oshery, elevating their reach and influence.

Innovation and Growth

From exploring AI tools to hiring our first Virtual Assistant, we leaned into technology to enhance our services. This addition has been a game-changer, allowing our team to focus on strategic initiatives while ensuring seamless support for our clients.

Reflecting, Strategizing, and Growing

Our leadership retreat days in 2024 were a powerful reminder of the importance of taking time to reflect, recharge, and realign. These moments of introspection allowed us to strategize and pivot toward even greater impact, ensuring that we continue to evolve and make a lasting difference. It’s a reminder that true leadership is about constant growth, adapting to change, and staying focused on the bigger picture. Leadership retreat days helped us reflect, strategize, and pivot toward even greater impact.

 

Celebrating Team Milestones

2024 was filled with reasons to celebrate our team:

  • Anniversaries: Our amazing leaders marked another Strat Labs-milestone. SVP of Strategic Marketing Christine marked 5 years at Strat Labs, while VP of Client Services Lexie and Creative Manager Curry celebrated 3 years. We coined “Labiversary” to honor these milestones, and we celebrated the first Labiversaries for Marketing and Philanthropy Coordinator Zach, Senior Account Manager Kelley, and SVP of Strategic Philanthropy Dana.
  • Survivor Team Day: A fun and unforgettable team-building experience. See who took the crown of sole survivor on our team. Watch episode 1, episode 2, and the season finale.
  • Strat Labs’s 7-Year Anniversary: Honoring seven years of growth, collaboration, and impact. This year marked a major milestone—Strat Labs’s 7-year anniversary! Over the past seven years, we’ve grown from a bold idea to a trusted partner for changemakers and innovators. We’ve built a community that thrives on strategy, creativity, and impact, and 2024 was no exception. From empowering nonprofits to winning awards, our journey has been defined by collaboration and purpose. Cheers to seven incredible years—and to an even brighter future ahead!
