Everyone at TalentBee will close laptops today and return to work in January.

I think getting a bit of rest for the whole team after a busy year is crucial.

Everyone is getting a normal full salary from December, and our team fully pays for these days off.

Here are 5 successes and 5 f*cks ups from this year:

✅ Build a brand - it pays off.

✅ Throwing a +300 people's birthday party

✅ 0% customer churn

✅ Giving our team members much responsibility --> It's not easy for them, but they are growing so fast.

✅ Growing our MRR to + 30 000€

❌ Too many development projects at the same time and no focus

❌ Not enough time and focus on sales

❌ Not understanding when my team members needed help and solving the problems for them

❌ Not succeeding in onboarding new people to TalentBee's ways of working in the way I should have

❌ Not talking enough about our vision and mission but focusing too much on the hard numbers

There are a few more hours of work today and then on the holidays.

Enjoy Christmas and Happy New Year 🥰
