Why It Matters Now
The future of work is about working happier (not harder)
“It’s not just where you work, but it’s how you work. It’s the why you work at this point. That’s the future.”
— Joseph Sangregorio, CHRO
Work is evolving fast...
AI is scaling output, but not belonging.
Automation is replacing tasks, but not trust.
Remote work is syncing calendars, but not people.
The best culture shifts start with small moments that remind people they’re part of something human.
Escape From The Meeting turns a single hour into laughter, shared memories, and genuine connection — sparking stronger collaboration and trust that last long after the game ends.
