TSEC

Our TSEC Academic Solutions team was on site 📍at the CASE Summit for Leaders in Advancement in Seattle — a room full of senior advancement leaders talking strategy, ethics, data, and what it really takes to lead advancement forward.

Huge thanks 🙌 to everyone who stopped by to talk shop with Jim and Shontae. Great conversations, even better company.

Strategic leadership. Cross-team collaboration 🤝. Data-driven decisions 📊. That's the stuff that moves institutions forward, and we were glad to be part of the conversation.

We’re still buzzing 🐝 from Wednesday's International Corporate Events Network Conference and Awards.

The day kicked off with ICEN’s founder and Cvent’s RVP welcoming everyone in. Our own Matthew Franks, TSEC CEO and DRPG Group COO, presented The Big Experiment, a workshop DRPG built and has now taken to the US, UK and Germany.

Keynotes pushed the room to think harder💭, and six campfire sessions gave event teams real space to compare notes, debate tactics, and walk away with fresh ideas🔥.

Then came the third annual ICEN Awards🏆, and we got to watch our client Avaya take home Best Incentive & Recognition Program. An event we were proud to deliver, recognized by the people who know exactly how important incentive events are.

Days spent in a room full of people doing genuinely amazing work in this industry don't come around that often. This was one of them✨.

Award-winning incentive programs don't happen by accident.

Congrats to Avaya on taking home the ICEN Award for Best Incentive & Recognition Program 🏆 at last night’s event!

Looking forward to planning the next one 🥳

The future of meetings and events belongs to those who keep showing up 🫡, speaking up 🗣️ and staying ahead ↗️.

Last week, Tracy, did exactly that at the 8th Annual Meeting Professionals Summit. Great conversations, smarter insights and connections that matter. 💛

Thanks to Visit Raleigh for hosting 🙌.

Tuesday's DRPG Summer Conference put TSEC in a room with colleagues from across the group 🌎 to talk strategy and celebrate the year so far.

Hidden talents: discovered 👀. Competitive streaks: fully exposed 🌟. Bragging rights: TBD (we're not admitting who won).

Proud to be part of a group this ambitious ❤️…and this competitive.

🤔 "How do you unite and energize a North American sales force for the new fiscal year without flying them to one location?"

That was Lenovo's challenge for their NA Sales Kickoff. Ours was solving it. 💪

Hybrid done right doesn't have to feel like a compromise.
