2020 has been…interesting. Quarantines, virtual school, working from home—so many new experiences that we’ve all weathered together. We’ve all found our own ways to push through. At Human Element, we are so, so grateful to our clients, professional partners, friends and families for helping us make the most of these odd and unprecedented times.
As we creep toward the new year, we would like to take a few moments to share with you some of the music, a core part of the Human Element company culture, that has helped us get through 2020. Music has been integral to the Human Element culture from the start. Managing partner Ben shares,
“I’m inspired each day by the team we’ve assembled. They are creative problem solvers and I learn something new from the team each day.
It’s like sitting in with a great Jazz ensemble; each member plays their part to perfection and we leave room for each other to stand out and sometimes sit back and listen.
We learn from each others’ performances and build on our own. I guess I kinda view it like a band that riffs off of each other.”
Throughout this past year, we’ve relied on music to calm, inspire, and rejuvenate our spirits, keeping us sane so that we can make our clients’ sites shine! Last year’s Elements of the Season holiday playlist is, of course, a December go-to.
This year, we reflected on the songs and albums that we played over and over again, and put together a Spotify playlist, 2020 on Repeat. Here’s a sneak peek:
