Rest & Relaxation Weekend







Here at K2 Consultants we have a ‘work hard, play hard’ mentality, which is why our management team takes a long weekend once every year to enjoy a Rest & Relaxation conference in a tropical locale.  The term ‘conference’ is used lightly as there is more R&R than work done during these annual trips.

Last year our management team enjoyed traveling to sunny Phoenix, Arizona while this year our event planners have managed to snag a trip to the world class Atlantis Resort in Nassau, Bahamas.  We are very excited to get the chance to enjoy such attractions as swimming with dolphins, gambling in the Atlantis casino, enjoying the underwater slides in the Water Park, and restaurants with views of sea life including aquariums housing sharks and a variety of tropical fish.  More importantly our management team will be taking time during this trip to network with other professionals in the Consulting field as well as to build stronger working relationships among themselves.  We feel that building strong relationships is the basis for a successful business and that building strong business relationships is often more effective when having a good time.  So this fall we will be enjoying the Bahamas, where will you be?

Management training expands beyond K2's office walls!


Work hard, play hard still held true with some practice
 putting in between sessions.
        Atlanta, Georgia was the host city of this year’s Assistant Managers Training Program Conference.  Assistant managers from K2 Consultants got a chance to travel down to one of the biggest cities on the east coast to meet with some of the country’s top business consultants.  Topics included best practices for effective managers, company branding, multimedia, web design, time management, financials and team building activities. 
       “The information and skills that I walked away with from just three days of meetings was immeasurable, not to mention getting to network with business professionals who are at a level that I aspire to achieve,” words from Derek Chard currently an Assistant Manager at K2 Consultants.  Conferences such as these are how K2 continues to perform on a high level for their clients.  Sales and marketing is just the beginning, training strong leadership and management is K2’s ultimate mission.  K2 does the majority of their development and training in house, but they are definitely not afraid to reach out to other resources to make sure they stay ahead of the curve.
