Embracing the Spirit of Easter in the Company Culture 🌷✨ As many across the world celebrated Easter yesterday, I'm reminded of the timeless values and traditions that define this special holiday. Just as Easter symbolizes rebirth, renewal, and hope, our company culture embodies similar principles that guide us forward every day. 🌟 Resilience: Like the story of Easter, which reflects the resilience and triumph over adversity, our team exemplifies resilience in the face of challenges. We tackle obstacles head-on, learn from setbacks, and emerge stronger than ever. 🤝 Community: Easter brings families and communities together, fostering bonds of love and support. Similarly, our company values the power of teamwork and collaboration. We believe in lifting each other up and celebrating our collective achievements. 🌱 Growth: Just as Easter represents new beginnings, our company embraces a culture of continuous growth and improvement. We encourage learning, innovation, and the pursuit of excellence in everything we do. 🎉 Celebration: Easter is a time of joyous celebration, marked by feasting and festivities. In our workplace, we believe in celebrating milestones and achievements. Together, we create a culture of positivity and appreciation. As we enjoy the blessings of Easter, let's also reflect on how these timeless values enrich our company culture and propel us towards a brighter future. #Teamspirit #Easter #CompanyCulture #WorkplaceCulture #Gratitude

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at NYLCV! Here are a few tips to help you be mindful of the environment while celebrating.

Everyone remembered the Nilla Wafers and taco nights. Had the honor of attending a celebration of life for a 99- and 103-year-old couple who passed within a year of one another.  As I didn’t know the couple well, I wasn’t sure what to expect from the service or to be as deeply moved as I was by the stories that were shared. I was struck by how much of my time I spend thinking about things that won’t make much of a difference in the impact I make during my short time here. As I think about the legacy I leave, I will look to Marg and Lloyd for the example they set. My takeaways: • What their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren remembered most was their love, the way they lived their lives, and how they treated others.   • Memories were mostly about quality time spent with family (often over tacos and Nilla wafers). Traditions matter. • What they said mattered much less than what they did. How does this relate to my approach to work and life? • The relationships I build along the way are worth far more than the title or the paycheck.  • The traditions we create don’t have to be Instaworthy, they just have to be real. • The moments matter. Between coworkers, friends and families.  Take the time, make the connections. Everyone wins.

Turning numbers into joy!

The Significance of Easter in Western Culture: Reflections on Professional Attitudes. As we approach #Easter, a time deeply rooted in the religious traditions of the Western world, it's worth reflecting on how these cultural celebrations influence #professionalattitudes globally. Easter holds different meanings for different people. For some, it's a time of religious observance, commemorating the resurrection of Jesus Christ. For others, it's a time of family gatherings, Easter egg hunts, and indulging in chocolate treats. However, regardless of one's personal beliefs, the essence of Easter carries valuable lessons applicable to the professional sphere. At its core, Easter symbolizes renewal, hope, and rebirth. In a professional context, these themes translate into opportunities for growth, resilience, and fresh beginnings. Just as Easter marks the end of Lent, a period of reflection and sacrifice, professionals can use this time to reflect on their #achievements and setbacks, identify areas for improvement, and set #newgoals for the months ahead. Moreover, Easter serves as a reminder of the importance of #perseverance in the face of adversity. The story of Christ's resurrection exemplifies resilience and the triumph of hope over despair. In the business world, challenges and setbacks are inevitable, but it's how we respond to them that defines our success. Easter encourages us to adopt a positive outlook, even in the darkest of times, and to believe in our ability to overcome obstacles. Additionally, Easter fosters a sense of community and unity. Just as families come together to celebrate this occasion, workplaces can use Easter as an opportunity to strengthen bonds among colleagues, foster a sense of belonging, and promote collaboration and teamwork. By embracing diversity and inclusivity, businesses can harness the collective strengths of their employees to achieve common goals. Ultimately, Easter serves as a reminder to infuse our professional lives with meaning, purpose, and compassion. Whether through acts of kindness, mentorship, or philanthropy, professionals can embody the spirit of Easter by making a positive impact in their communities and beyond. As we celebrate Easter, let us not only indulge in the festivities but also reflect on the timeless lessons it imparts. May this season inspire us to approach our professional endeavors with renewed passion, resilience, and a commitment to making a difference in the world. Wishing you all a joyful and meaningful Easter filled with love, hope, and prosperity.
