As we wrap up 2023, we find ourselves reflecting on months past and what lies ahead with our community’s journey.
If you recall, our Personal and Professional Development Coach, Michael “Buck” Buckley. Challenged us to pick a “Word of the Year” in January 2023. Buck asked us to look inward and consider what we need more of or what might improve our lives. The time has come to revisit our Word of the Year for 2023. To explore its impact on Carriage Court Senior Living. Whether you’ve been an active member or are just joining us, this retrospective journey invites us all to celebrate the past year.
Our community Word of the Year for 2023 was ‘unity.’ We achieved many successes throughout the year, living according to our word.
We implemented an improved orientation process for new employees, creating a sense of unity as we welcomed new teammates. Carriage Court hit a 100% completion rate for our Great Place to Work and Great Place to Live surveys. We also held our first annual tree-lighting event during recent festivities. All these things could not have been a success without a strong sense of unity amongst one another.
We lived our chosen word. The year was full of ups and downs, but one thing was always sure to be true: we stuck together and were unified in the end. I’m looking forward to 2024 and seeing more lives enriched as we continue our journey. The community has seen such growth in its employees and retention over the last year, creating a better place to live for our residents.
As we bid farewell to 2023, we will carry forward the essence of our Word of the Year into 2024. The successes and strides of our community, the embodiment of our chosen word in our collective actions, are not just markers in time but a testament to the strength of this community.
I look forward to catching our 2024 Word of the Year blog soon!
