The AJ team recently produced a summit for Constellation Brands designed to inspire and energize a critical audience: the distributors who help drive the business forward. In times of uncertainty, values become your anchor. Through executive storytelling, the event’s key themes centered on resilience, partnership, and staying true to what matters most. Proud to help bring this experience to life—and proud of the team that made it happen. 🌟 #AJEvents

In our world of constant change— where employee stress and disengagement are on the rise— clear, purposeful communication is more critical than ever. And the need is increasing… 📉 According to Gallup, just 31% of U.S. employees are engaged at work as of 2025. So, how can leaders foster connection, boost confidence, and drive alignment across teams in the face of uncertainty? 💡 In the weeks ahead, we’ll share insights from AJ’s leadership team on how today’s executives are successfully navigating these challenges.

The AJ team has been on-site across multiple locations this week supporting a national meeting for our client’s commercial teams, where the energy around 2025 priorities is electric. Themes of adaptability, alignment, and connection are driving conversations about how teams can win together in the year ahead. And speaking of alignment—our AJ team members Ellen Miller Gilcrest and Lucy Farnsworth unintentionally showed up perfectly in sync, twinning in Pantone’s 2025 Color of the Year. A small (but fitting) reminder that when teams are united—whether in purpose, vision, or even style—great things happen. #AJEvents #WinningTogether
