Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving

In our work, we often ask leaders: “What are the trophies in your leadership cabinet?”

Almost always, the answers come back to people.

People make up your culture—and while it’s easy to focus on the challenges of team life, it’s far more powerful to focus on gratitude for what we get to accomplish together.

At Slingshot, we’ve seen how gratitude transforms teams. It builds trust, reminds people they matter, and turns everyday work into shared mission.

So as you reflect this season, take time to thank the people who make your work possible. Write the note. Make the call. Speak the encouragement. Because in a world that keeps moving fast, gratitude is what helps leaders—and teams—slow down long enough to see God’s goodness at work.

So in the spirit of Philippians 1:3, we want to thank you for the work you do, how you lead and how you work tirelessly to build remarkable teams that make a difference.

Wishing you a Thanksgiving week filled with gratitude and grace.

Tim Foot
CEO, Slingshot Group
