I am back in the Chicago office after a fantastic 3 weeks in New Zealand. I had 2 weeks working in the NZ office with the Creative Team as well as doing our annual planning with the Business Team.

Trip highlights include:

  • Catching up with all the Zoners
  • Working with the Creative Team on a new Crocs campaign
  • Day after day after day of sun
  • Setting our goals for the new financial year
  • Popping champagne after winning a Effie (USA) Award
  • Mopping the floor post champagne pop “TimeZoneOne, we wash our floors in champagne”
  • Playing golf on a local farm course with fences around the greens to keep the sheep off
  • Celebrating Nigel’s 40th birthday
  • Meat pies
  • Spending 4 days with Rich in the wilderness learning to survive in white water in a kayak

Thanks to all our NZ-based Zoners for hosting the Chicago team - it was great to see y’all.
