International Day of SHINE

What does the future hold for SHINE?

On Friday 31st July, we had our ‘International Day of SHINE’ (more affectionately known as iDOS). The objective for the day and the ‘Future Planning Committee’ was for all members of the SHINY team to come together and discuss how we go about business and give ideas on how to improve for the future.
So we decided this exciting event should really be held in the creative environment of a CitizenM meeting room, to allow the creative juices to flow and some wonderful ideas to surface.

We met early in the morning for a delicious breakfast of bacon rolls and croissants – a nice healthy way to start the day and get our minds working…

Throughout the day, we were discussing some very thought-provoking and important questions, such as where do we see the business in 5 years? Do we have enough chocolate biscuits to last us until then? Is there enough yellow in the world? (the answer is always no, but we were delighted to see there was plenty of yellow dotted around CitizenM, such as this amazing book below).

We got to write down our ideas on some fancy CitizenM yellow paper using our fancy SHINE yellow pencils…

And we came up with some ideas on how SHINE can improve for the future. A successful day was had by all. But now we are left with the most important and difficult decision still to make: Should we get a chair like this for the studio? (of course it would need to be yellow…)
