The Pizza and Beer Test. 🍕🍻 Gratitude and thanks to my wonderful friend Michael Sharp, who recognizes the incredible value of the pizza and beer test as a tool to identify potential fantastic friends and colleagues. If you're on board with this simple yet revealing test, we're most likely destined to cross paths. When it comes to building genuine connections, few things compare to the camaraderie formed over shared slices of pizza and cold pints of beer. 🙌 These casual gatherings unveil the essence of who we are and what we value, serving as a reliable indicator of compatibility and future collaborations. Mike, thanks for embracing this unconventional test. By reveling in the pleasures of pizza and beer together, we've established a shared understanding and appreciation for each other's preferences. More importantly, it's a testament to our ability to navigate and connect on a deeper level. 🌟 To my fellow LinkedIn connections, take a moment to reflect on the power of the pizza and beer test: a lighthearted way to discover like-minded souls who understand the importance of enjoying simple pleasures and forging authentic connections. If you find yourself enjoying either pizza or beer, we've got something in common. But if you share the love for both, chances are we're destined to meet and collaborate in meaningful ways. 🍕🍻 Cheers to building incredible friendships and finding phenomenal colleagues through the simplicity of the pizza and beer test. #friendship #commonground #pizza #beer #success

I'm watching High on the Hog, an excellent food series on Netflix about Black cuisine from all over the diaspora. I know many companies will choose this month to only feature American Southern Cuisine but please remember that Blackness is not a monolith. There is no one "Black" food, there isn't one type of African, African-American, Caribbean, Afro-European, Afro-Latin, Afro-Asian.. you see where I'm going with it.. I worked at a vfx company that had an industrial kitchen, they let us cook whatever we wanted, and they also catered meals. I worked late and would cook and bake all the time. I would share my meals with my co-workers, and we had a little after work foodie community that I truly miss. The one thing I appreciated is that the company would hire really good caterers who brought every type of food from lumpia to collard greens all year long, we had an array of different pepper sauces co-workers would bring from all over the world that anyone could use. Having that choice, made me feel comfortable, I was able to be myself at work. Having tabasco, sriacha, tapatio, wasabi paste or crystal hot sauce might seem like a small thing, but it's still a representation of culture. I have worked a lot of places with awful food, especially at larger companies who water down "ethnic" meals and remove their wonderful spices to appease the palate of the majority. If you are still planning or thinking about having a Black History celebration, please hire a caterer or vendor. Do not expect your corporate chefs to make gumbo, jollof rice, mofongo, la bandera, black eyed peas, injera, or any other combination of foods that represent these various cultures. If you want to celebrate Black History or any other cultural history in the kitchen, do it all the time, not just during the nationally designated month. Fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) is crucial, especially in light of the disbandment of DEI teams and ERG groups by several companies. The current trend of attempting to diminish diversity underscores the urgency of our commitment to creating inclusive workplaces. If you find comfort in enjoying a diverse array of cuisines, such as Taco Tuesday, curry, ramen, and more, it is imperative that your workplaces reflect the same diversity and inclusion. Otherwise, companies risk contributing to the very problem we should be actively addressing. Let us strive to build environments where every individual, regardless of their background, feels valued, heard, and represented. Oh and watch High on the Hog :) https://lnkd.in/ebec9hjy #netflix #blackhistorymonth #blackhistory365 #foodculture #cuisine #chefs #fooddiversity #highonthehog #foodjustice, #foodorigins, #globalfoodways #highonthehog #DEI #employeeresourcegroups #ergs

Our #office baking-competition is back. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗶𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗱? With a discussion among colleagues: Who makes the best brownies? 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗴𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴? Every couple of months we are hosting a bake-off in the office. We pick a special theme and 4-5 colleagues volunteer to contribute a dish. Colleagues from different teams and functions get together to try the food and pick their favorite. The winner receives highest appreciation and an invitation to defend their title at the next competition. Today's theme was: "Savory in three colors". #culture #employeeengagement #funatwork

When you think about beer, do you see just a drink? Or do you see the art behind it? For me, brewing is a blend of science, passion, and endless creativity. It's not just about creating something people drink; it's about crafting an experience—one that tells a story in every sip. 🌾🧪 The beauty of brewing lies in the experimentation. From the choice of malts and hops to the process of fermentation, every step is an opportunity to explore new flavors and push boundaries. And let's not forget the feeling of community it fosters—uniting people, one pint at a time. 🍻 As someone who’s deeply passionate about craft beer and constantly refining my skills as a young brewer, I’m excited about how far this journey can go. Whether you prefer a crisp lager or a complex IPA, there's always something new to discover. So, here’s my question to you all: What's the most memorable beer experience you've ever had? Let’s swap stories and celebrate the craft! 🦊⚓🍺

From my point of view I see teamwork like pizza 🍕 The assortment looks exactly like a plate cut into identical pieces, each piece containing a different type of vegetable than the next, and different from the next. But the integration of these pieces means the integration of the dish, and the integrated work gives a wonderful result... just like the delicious taste of pizza in the end. The bottom line is that the team composition and its differences give distinction, and without that we cannot obtain an impressive result and perform the tasks. #team_work #composition #work #tasks
