"It’s Not Just About the Cake" ! Birthdays at work can feel like just another #event — a quick pause for cake, some snacks, and maybe a round of “Happy Birthday.” But have you ever stopped to wonder—are these moments more important than they seem? Think about it. In the rush of deadlines and deliverables, birthdays give us a rare chance to pause. It’s not just about marking another year; it’s about recognizing the person behind the role. It’s about saying, “We see you. We appreciate you. You matter here.” That kind of recognition, however small it seems, can light up someone’s day—and sometimes, even their week. But what really makes these #celebrations magical is how they bring us together. Sharing a laugh over a funny story, teasing someone about their age, or just sitting down to enjoy the moment /samosa together—these little things build bonds that last far beyond the party. They remind us that we’re not just coworkers passing each other in meetings or emails; we’re a #team, connected by shared experiences and a sense of belonging. Yet, birthdays are often underrated. We focus on the “big” milestones, but it’s these small, consistent gestures of appreciation that build a #culture where people feel valued. It’s in these moments that trust grows, connections deepen, and the workplace transforms into a #community. At INDICOLD, we believe these small celebrations weave the fabric of the organization. They remind us of the values we share and the #people who make everything, we achieve, possible. So, the next time a birthday comes around, let’s think beyond the cake and snacks. Let’s make it a moment to celebrate the person, the team, and the #journey we’re all on together. What’s your take? Do you think workplace birthdays are underrated? Or do you have a story about how a simple celebration made a big difference? We’d love to hear your experiences—share them in the comments below! #coldchain #indicoldproud #coldchain #warehousing #supplychain #logistics Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India FICCI CII Institute of Logistics Confederation of Indian Industry ASSOCHAM (The Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India) Kartik Jalan Niharika Jalan Mohit Kumar Giri Amit Sharma Neeraj Kumar Meenal Markan
