Coffee, Cheese Plates, and Cocktails, Oh My!

We are big believers that good food, good drinks, and good conversations go hand-in-hand.

Imagine a gathering of friends without snacks or a decadent dessert. Picture the family gathering at Thanksgiving or Christmas without turkey, lefse or a fine wine and egg nog.

Can’t do it, can you?

Neither can we.

This is why a year ago we decided to be more intentional about having in-person conversations with prospective and current partners. We also wanted to insert some creativity into those connections.

Networking lunches and meetings are valuable, but we wanted to do more than meet people. We wanted to build relationships.

And so we began CCC – Coffee, Cheese Plates, and Cocktails.

The concept is straight forward. Every week we set aside time to connect with people – in person. Sometimes that means scheduling a coffee meeting during traditional working hours. Other times it may mean initiating an after-work gathering over a cheese plate and cocktails.

To be clear, we’re not against enjoying other beverages or appetizers (Note: Anita doesn’t even LIKE coffee), but CCC gives us a framework. An excuse to gather, if you will.

One of the great pleasures of doing project management work is that we get caught up in the excitement (and share in the apprehension) of our partners’ ventures. We are energized by the collaboration and connections that happen naturally when you work toward a common goal.

We believe in carrying those connections beyond project management work.

Conversations over coffee, cheese plates, or cocktails give us an opportunity to learn and empathize in a stress-free, safe setting. Relationships can develop and deepen over several coffee connections (and maybe a couple of cheese plates). Time spent together builds trust and true partnerships – those values that are important to us at Reach Partners.

In our world, a cup of coffee is more than a vessel for caffeine. It’s an invitation to get to know each other, and that is something valuable indeed.

So, get to know us. Schedule a get-together with one of us by clicking below. This will take you to our calendar where you can choose a time to meet us for coffee, cheese plates, or cocktails. We look forward to it!

Great Post! You are inspiring me. I'm glad we got to connect in person last month! Oh, and I loved the reference to lefse -- one doesn't see that in a post every day -- unless of course, you live in your part of the country. Thank you very much.
