About fall Training

Get ready for Fall Training 2024—a week of interactive sessions and activities designed to help us connect, build stronger relationships, and discover better ways to work together.

Stanford lecturer Melissa Jones Briggs will lead our morning sessions. With a background that blends social sciences and performing arts, Melissa is an expert in using play to help people find their authentic voice, break down barriers, and have better work interactions. Together, we'll uncover habits, tweaks, hacks, and perspectives to level up individually and thrive as a distributed team.

Casual breakfast will be provided at The Restoration every morning before our meetings. If you'd like a sitdown or substantial meal, feel free to refer to the recommendations list.  Lunch will be served on Tuesday and Thursday once our morning sessions wrap.  Some activities will require a to-go or boxed lunch, and we'll get your order on the day of your activity.  There will be light snacks at the welcome at Level 256. We'll have a full dinner on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, and Wednesday night will be smaller team dinners at restaurants around town.
