Programming example

This year, we took Amazon’s Black History Month "Culture is Calling" theme to the max at our site. As BEN President, I’ve had the privilege of watching our team grow and thrive.While the energy during our dress-up and representation days was electric (and the "Snack Attacks" certainly kept us fueled) and informed, two specific moments truly defined what we stand for:Investing in our own: Our Career Development Workshop reminded us that a strong culture is built on growth. Seeing colleagues lean into new skills and mentor one another was a masterclass in professional community.Making an impact: We spent time assembling snack kits for students at a nearby elementary school. It was a powerful reminder that the culture we build inside our walls is at its best when it pours out into the local community.Proud of this team for answering the call! 📞✨💚🖤♥️🖤💚♥️✨hashtag#Leadership hashtag#CompanyCulture hashtag#CommunityImpact hashtag#CareerDevelopment hashtag#BEN hashtag#Blackemployeenetwork hashtag#amazon hashtag#blackhistorymonth
