040: The Power of Celebration

In this energizing episode of SpeakEasy HR, we’re joined by the dynamic team behind "But, First Coffee"—John and Jackye—for a feel-good, real-talk conversation about something every workplace needs more of: celebration. We dive into how leaders and teams can intentionally encourage, recognize, and celebrate the good times—big or small—and why that matters more than ever in today’s fast-paced, high-pressure work environment. From spontaneous shoutouts to structured recognition, we explore how celebration creates connection, boosts morale, and helps build resilient, people-first cultures.Plus—we’re celebrating a milestone of our own: ONE YEAR of SpeakEasy HR! 🎉 So grab your favorite cup of coffee and join us as we talk about:Why celebration isn’t fluff—it’s fuelWays to make recognition personal and meaningfulHow to celebrate without a big budgetEncouraging joy, gratitude, and connection at workBecause when we take time to celebrate what’s good, we create workplaces where people want to stay, grow, and thrive.
