Each year, the entire Agili team gathers for our annual company retreat. This year, the Richmond group was lucky enough to be the guests of our generous Bethlehem hosts. We gathered for team connection and brainstorming. We discussed what “client delight” means to our teams, how our individual roles impact the larger team, and how to tweak processes to improve the experience of our much-valued clients.
First, we were treated to a tour of historic (and beautiful) downtown Bethlehem, PA — followed by a fantastic dinner at Edge.

After gathering to summarize our groups’ work, the Richmond team bid a fond farewell to our Bethlehem friends. It was a fantastic retreat, filled with reflection, collaboration and innovation. And we’ve already started implementing some of the great ideas that were hatched while we were together.
The Richmond team got a kick out of this pumpkin display on the way home. (We may have been seeing things, but some of us thought the design bore an uncanny resemblance to the Agili logo!)
