Quick Hits
The Quick Hit assignment was designed as a way for team members to establish a relationship with their assigned site managers. Site managers are employees of our client who have volunteered to help bring about a more positive, environmental vision to their workplace. Each team member researched one of the six focus areas that was chosen by their site managers. This information was then compiled into one page briefs, allowing site managers to take immediate action to improve their practices within the chosen focus area.
