Last month Swaab’s Part­ner and Man­age­ment team spent two days off-site at Kia­ma for a Strat­e­gy Week­end, the first in a post Covid world. 

This was a valu­able oppor­tu­ni­ty for the team to work­shop, brain­storm and bond under the watch­ful guid­ance and facil­i­ta­tion of Sue-Ella Prodonovich from Prodonovich Advi­so­ry. The aim of the week­end was to review the suc­cess of our per­for­mance over the past two years and set our strate­gic direc­tion for 2023. From the stand point of team col­lab­o­ra­tion, cul­ture and bond­ing the high­light was din­ner at Sil­i­ca Bar & Restau­rant on Fri­day night.
