How We
Can Help
HOW MUCH DIFFERENCE CAN
ONE CHOICE MAKE
At first, it doesn’t seem like a big deal. Sharing
an idea, speaking up for others, or pausing to
listen to those around you may be small acts
of kindness. However, the magic unfolds when
we add consistency, intentionality, and time.
It shapes our entire environment, overt time
defining the culture of how things are done and
how things can be in the future. In other words,
every decision we make has the power to create
a ripple effect. We have the key to shifting the
narrative at every moment in our lives. But
how often are we aware of this?
The pandemic woke us up to our blind spots.
We’ve all been so busy working that we forgot to
be human. We forgot to just be. As COVID halted
our travel plans and “business as usual,” it also
stopped us from running in the hamster wheel
of mindless action. For the first time, everyone,
including us at InnovatorsBoxÂź
, found ourselves
asking if this is really the best way to do what we
do at work.
For us, that meant rethinking how and what
we serve the clientele. For me, while I loved
in-person engagements, the weekly travel
was starting to take a toll on my health. I had
forgotten when I last felt physically healthy
and recharged. I was juggling multiple projects,
email threads, and communication timelines—
frequently waking up at hotels, feeling
confused about what city I was in. This was not
sustainable. I also wondered how we could
provide more proactive content and creative
resources that others could use on their own,
instead of only creating customized services
when clients reached out to us for specific
projects. Still, I didn’t know any other way. Until
the pandemic shook everything up, I thought
this was all there was.
18 months later, we’ve grown to realize we’re
more resilient, human, and creative than we
thought. Learning how to serve online took time,
but I started to notice that the small moments
were adding up. The intentional follow-up
emails, hosting global innovators meetups to
bring people together, creating free resilience
guides, making music to celebrate innovators’
stories, and creating mascots to tell the story
of creativity in a new way all brought us closer
to helping one more innovator, team, or
company who was feeling burned out, stressed
and fatigued. It reminded me of how every
small decision creates a powerful ripple effect.
So yes, while the pandemic marked a halt to
our pre-2020 growth, on looking back, it also
helped us to grow in a transformative way that
I had already been longing for. It pushed me
to reconsider the power of small decisions,
including making the time to look back at the
past three years, even as we look at how we
want to develop with you in the future.
We may not know what life will give us, but
we can always choose to be the protagonist
and decide what to do, how to respond, and
how to live the life we want in any situation.
Looking back, I’m reminded of this key fact: we
always have a choice, even in moments when
it feels like we don’t. Even when you’re facing
a pandemic that makes you feel powerless,
the choice is always yours. You can make your
dream a reality, but you have to work with
intention.
I humbly share our past three-year journey, in
commitment to continuing those small decisions
to make this world a better place with you. I
hope this reflection encourages you to join us
in the coming years as we move boundaries,
help more people around the world, and teach
them how to meet their full potential, no matter
where they are or how they use their creativity.

3 YEARS IN REVIEW
In three years, we expanded our capacity and capabilities as we deepened our agility, humility, and creativity. Some things didn’t go as planned, and a
lot of things grew faster than we thought. While initially, the pandemic felt like a full force stopper to our rapid growth, a year later, we found ourselves
wiser and scaling our services further.

People come to us to change something important that felt impossible
before. How can we build a happy culture or a fast-growing team that
feels like one? How can we stay creative when we don’t feel like we
can trust each other? How can we work better together while working
remotely? I get a twinkle in my eyes when I hear these questions. While
the how and the what may differ in every project we work on, all projects
stem from people wanting to bring out the best in each other. A desire for
good culture, leadership, and team building stems from people wanting
to be understood, valued, and loved for who they truly are. We’re hungry
to be seen as human beings in the workplace, not just cogs with stringent
stations doomed to transactional relationships. This is why the more
difficult questions we get with each project, the deeper I challenge myself
and my team to reflect on how we can understand people and bring out
the best in them. This is the nuance that I’m grateful to have embraced in
the past few years—prioritizing growth within ourselves so that we can be
a better partner to our clients and communities. If we aren’t growing as
a company, as teams, and as people, how can we help others to see how
they can grow? Looking back, there were three things in particular that we
doubled down our efforts on.
BUILDING OUR NICHE
Innovation is a broad space. We knew we could do a lot of different
things in it, but to serve our audience best, it was important for us to
dive deeper into a niche. This is why we decided to specialize in creative
workplace and people development. No matter who we worked with, it all
came back to the same key questions:
	
» How can we build a creative workplace where everyone is free to thrive?
	
» How can we encourage more empathetic, creative, and caring leaders?
	
» How can we offer more tools and resources to help build creative
resilience?
While the projects we undertook with NBCUniversal, Dell, Bristol Myers
Squibb, Johns Hopkins University, Freddie Mac, PepsiCo, One America,
Georgia Tech University, and the Asian Leadership Conference were all
different and unique, they were all connected to the niche in which we
hoped to serve—helping to create a workplace where all could thrive
and be creative. This meant honing how we deliver our services but also
exploring how workshops, facilitation, and coaching could be expanded
and repositioned. A lot of our worksheets stemmed from conversations
we had with clients, who told us that they were so busy in day-to-day
life that there wasn’t time to develop businesses as they wished to—
strategically and intentionally. I understood that feeling all too well. The
busier we get and the faster we grow, the more we forget that every
interaction is an opportunity to connect, rethink, or get hurt. So from
our client delivery to project management, we put a lot of care into
doing more with less and designing the process to bring more ease and
playfulness to our clients’ journey into adopting creative culture. Changing
the way we work takes time, so we must consider new ways of working
that feel enjoyable and stress-free. This is why over the past three years,
while our projects were diverse, we were also more selective, in order to
give our full focus to the culture, leadership, and team-building programs
where our clients needed help. We’re honored to have been their guide
in adopting a workplace for all, and we look forward to honing our craft
further and helping other leaders to build their new workplace homes.

DOING MORE BY TRAVELING LESS
Even before the pandemic, I was hungry to explore how we could do
more without travel. At the time, I was traveling domestically (weekly) and
internationally (quarterly). That’s not healthy or sustainable, and while
our team is fully remote and working well across all time zones, I wasn’t
able to give them full development support, as I was busy traveling,
networking, and doing business development. When the pandemic forced
us to stop all travel, the digital service development and creative content
ideas I had put on hold for a long time finally came into full ideation and
development. In fact, in 2020–2021, my schedule did a 180-degree turn
as I went from weekly plane travel to a single flight for the entire year.
Everything else was done online.
Monica delivers! Her deep subject-matter expertise combined with
her creativity, flexibility, and empathy make Monica an unbeatable
facilitator. Monica is exceptionally skilled at meeting both people
and business needs. She crafted an outstanding webinar for my
company, and I would gladly work with her again.
- Middle Border Forward
It wasn’t easy at first. When we were first forced to cut out travel, we
lost 90% of our business because we didn’t have an alternative program
online. I wasn’t comfortable using Zoom and only downloaded it for the
first time in March 2020. Now, 18 months later, we are finding more
effective, easier ways to connect with our clients even when working
remotely with one another. In the past, I could only do one project at a
time, as we couldn’t be in multiple locations. But today, we serve clients
in South Korea, catch up with team members in London, and do multiple
client workshops and coaching sessions within the same day! Plus,
reducing travel costs meant I could invest that back into digital assets
such as more worksheets, creative productions like podcasts, music,
and games, and more internal resources to permit cross-collaboration
between the InnovatorsBox teams. I’m really excited to see how we can
continue to serve more clients and communities while finding more
creative ways to help access creativity learning and play at work.
HOW WE GREW WITH OUR PEOPLE AND PARTNERS
We’ve also grown our team during the pandemic and have team
members from 7 different countries and cities including Colombia,
Canada, Spain, Indonesia, South Korea, United States, and the United
Kingdom.
We’ve grown by also doing more cross partnership services:
Adapt to Grow is
with FocusUSA to
provide creative
marketing services.
Culture of Analytics
is with Proximo to
help build a culture
of data and people
analytics.
Mindfulness in the
workplace with Woo
Woo Company to
help build a mindful
workplace.

Before
In 2018 we were mapping out a new program, and in need of a
facilitator for a key part—the Innovation Slam. When we came
across Monica’s resume and application (she initially applied as a
participant) we knew we had found our facilitator!
After
Monica has such high energy and embodies what she teaches.
I leave every meeting feeling creative, inspired, and excited for
what’s to come. As an event facilitator, she is skilled, thoughtful,
adaptable, and attentive to all the voices in the room.

Before
I was introduced to Monica through a mutual friend. We began
talking about her work with organizations to achieve creativity and
innovation. Our work is educating the next generation of leaders,
and we invite leaders like Monica to teach and lead conversations
with young leaders.
After
Monica consistently delivers in two areas. First, she creates a safe
space for young leaders to talk about their shared experiences and
challenges, such as career development and network engagement,
and receive support from their peers. Second, Monica guides our
young leaders to step out of their comfort zones and think more
creatively. This helps them communicate more effectively and
become more impactful.

BUILDING MORE WITHIN
All of this growth was possible because we spent a lot of time looking
inward. What kind of culture did we want to build at InnovatorsBox?
What did we want to speak up about in society? Who did we want to
bring onto our team and why? How could we have workflows that
empower our people? As our team grew from five to twenty across seven
countries, I realized how important it was to invest more time inward and
really listen, in order to improve how we do things every day. Without
a strong internal structure of our own, how could we help others build
their foundations? With that in mind, we spent a lot of time listening,
optimizing, and improving how we work, how we show up, and how we
listen to one another. That’s where all the new magic evolved and how
it fueled our creativity and innovation in how we serve—all while having
fun.
Two priorities stood out that helped to build the culture we have
today. First was listening and creating spaces for team members to
speak up. The best ideas, such as our quarterly team meetings, Slack
implementation, and new operational processes, started because our
team members asked for them. Our people continue to express how
they wanted more time to get to know each other and work together.
That led to finding more ways to include different team members in
projects, as well as initiating our IB BackStage blog series. In August 2021,
in celebration of our 6-year company birthday, we started highlighting a
different team member every Monday to share why they do what they
do and why they love it. This permitted everyone to share their thoughts
with others, who may not otherwise have known the depth and care they
have brought into the team!
Our second priority was optimizing workflow to bring out the best
in everyone. I loved the question that one of our colleagues raised:
“How can work feel more like play?” When we work based on our
strengths and see opportunities to voice our thoughts, it feels more
fun. Our voices matter, and we are more likely to contribute and
create! So, we spent a lot of time learning more about each other and
our strengths, communication styles, work styles, and preferences for
project bandwidth. We’re all in different time zones, on different project
plans, with different communication styles. Having one workflow and
forcing everyone to follow it isn’t enjoyable or productive. So as the
project manager and arranger lead, I focused on optimizing every step
we could to make everything more pleasant and easier to do. If we are
coordinating eight people to get one thing done, how can we streamline
the process so that all eight people have clarity on where the project is
going? This permitted us to explore new software and workflows that not
only brought out team members’ strengths but left us all feeling better
able to grow because we were enjoying what we were doing. Personally,
I know that what I was able to do in the past three years was significantly
greater than what I used to think because I focused on amplifying my own
strengths and those of my team. I can’t wait to bring out our voices even
more as we continue to grow together in the coming years.

CREATING MORE FOR SCALE
We also thought a lot about how we could scale impact. How can we
help more clients to create a happy workplace? How can we help more
innovators to build their creative muscles? The pandemic pushed us
to reimagine scale and sustainable impact. Not only have we learned
to serve online, but we’ve been challenged to rethink what tools and
resources we can invest in that will really help innovators and leaders
to rethink growth, even when they’re not sitting in a workshop. This
question led us to host virtual Global Innovators Meetups and create
space for innovators around the world to connect, producing creative
content (in the form of podcasts, music, videos, cooking shows, children’s
books, and games) that inspires our audience to rethink how they can be
creative, no matter what they do. It also led to the birth of InnovatorsBox
Academy, where we launched online training courses such as Rethink
Facilitation, Rethink Diversity, and Rethink Leading, and InnovatorsBox
Studios, which produces original music, podcasts, videos, and more! The
challenge of finding different ways to learn outside of a workshop and
make learning feel like play inspired us to reimagine learning itself. We
got to experiment and build a lot of new content, which empowered
both existing and new fans around the world to realize that they are not
alone. We look forward to continuing to challenge methods of learning
and training, ever-redefining content consumption on a global level.
Of course, we plan to do all of this while still expanding our workshop,
coaching, facilitation, and consulting services to scale.
“We are always pushing the edge with training facilitation to
empower youth and equip caring adults to better build relationships
so in learning about InnovatorsBox and the training techniques it
provides, it was an easy choice to use Monica’s materials to inform
our work with youth and adults. We will use these products in
our virtual and in-person training workshops to provide a great
experience for all involved.”

GIVING FIRST
While we’ve always been a give-first company, we focused more on this
aspect during the pandemic. While we lost 90% of our initial review in
Spring 2021, we still dove deep and tried to help others as much as we
could. We created remote working EQ guides and meeting tip resources,
as everyone was struggling to stay connected online. We created global
meetups and mindset workshops to bring innovators together and
remind them that they could do this. We also created a product donation
campaign in Fall 2020, donating over 600+ InnovatorsBox card games to
over 20+ organizations in the United States to make creativity learning
accessible and permit diverse communities to find connectivity, creativity,
and courage with one another. These efforts were made to serve our
community and let us continue to do what we do best: transform our
society into a more creative, people-first, culture-centric place. We’re
so happy to hear how these contributions made a difference in these
communities! It encourages us to create even more tools that will help
others to find the courage and reimagine how they thrive at work.

WE WANT TO IMPROVE TOO
While we’re proud of all that we’ve done and humbled by the recognition
and support, we know that there’s still a lot of room for growth. We’re
eager to continue growing and learning to be a better partner, a better
company, and better people, serving innovators like you around the
world.
A few things that we still struggle with but hope to do better at are:
(1) Consistent community development and
(2) Finding our audiences faster
While we’ve provided a lot of community programs since 2016, serving
high-quality programs, events, and content consistently (for free) requires
a lot of attention and details that we haven’t been able to do well
enough. Not having a dedicated team member to focus on community
development has sometimes made it hard to continue at full steam
when we get busy with client projects and other internal development.
We’ve also been more mindful not to allow team burnout, as I found
myself getting tired, forced to post articles on schedule. In order to
focus on providing content that was truly driven by joy, we let go of the
expectation that it had to be done monthly or on a certain timeline.
While our monthly newsletter is one space that we’ve kept up regularly
since 2016, we’d love to get better at producing other resources to serve
our audiences more consistently. We also want to improve at reaching
our new fans and communities. As we continue to work online, it’s
become important to make our tools and resources more accessible and
easier to understand, as we can’t explain them in person in a conference
hallway like we used to. Describing the importance of people’s work
and culture development is a marathon project, and at times, I realize I
need to do a better job explaining in order to find the people who need
our support faster. At the same time, while serving online has made it
easier, there are still a lot of barriers to timeline access—like working
with certain time zones or internet access situations. As we continue to
support our clients and new fans, we hope to find more ways to make
creativity learning accessible, playful, and sustainable, no matter where
they are.
Our intention is to help billions upskill with creativity, and we know that
all of our efforts will help make a difference to someone out there who
really needs this support to rethink creativity and thrive.

THE YEARS AHEAD
What will really matter ten years from now? Now that six years have
passed, I’d argue it’s not the how but the why that matters. Just when I
thought that the year-long projects made the most difference, I’d get an
email from a fan sharing how a podcast episode we did a few months
back gave them the confidence to speak up for the first time. It’s a
humble reminder that you never know how you can help others find new
courage and perspective. So, I’ve stopped overthinking about what will
be impactful or not. Everything you do can make an impact if you focus
on that one audience or individual that really needs it. Whether it’s a
free resource guide (like the one we made during the pandemic to help
remote EQ building) or a year-long culture development program where
clients share how this is the first time they’ve felt safe to talk about their
workplace challenges, all engagements matter equally when you put in
the intention. That’s how I want to move forward at InnovatorsBox—as
a company that treats all steps as equally important catalysts for new
thinking and hope.
One thing the pandemic affirmed is how fast the way we work evolves
and how much we all hunger to connect as human beings. As our
surroundings change and push us to adapt how we serve, we commit to
staying true to our why and making sure that everything we do is really
helping to unlock creativity for all. Looking at the next few years and what
we hope to accomplish, I’m excited to focus on our consistent dedication
to growing together with you. So whether you work with us in year-long
culture and leadership training programs or see us at Spotify, YouTube,
GIPHY, or even in Hollywood one day, I hope we’ll register as the same
heartwarming friend who wants to bring more color and possibility to
the world and help everyone to live their best lives, no matter where they
work or live. We’ll continue to listen more carefully and work harder to
note how we can help you as you grapple with all the questions regarding
the future of work. Upskilling and reskilling for the future will only
increase, but how we learn has to evolve even faster. This is why, as we
continue to provide quality custom culture, leadership, and team-building
programs, we look forward to diving deeper into podcasts, music, games,
and other creative storytelling content and services to make creativity
access and learning more fun, available, and relatable. We hope that
through these developments, you’ll learn more about your creativity
while you play. All we ask in return is this: Please continue to work
with us to help make this world shine with more color. For some,
that means continuing to invest in your team’s creative thinking and safe
room building, while for others, it’s learning how to step into your voice
of courage as who you really are. Wherever you may be, I want to remind
you that you matter, and your voice matters. Thank you for taking this
journey with us. We look forward to unlocking more possibilities together.
GRATITUDE
We’re here today because of you. Thank you for all of your support, care,
and trust in our mission to help unlock creativity for all. I want to give a
special shoutout to our team in particular, both old and new members.
In the past six years, we’ve had over thirty different people come and
go, and without their touch and care in what we do, we wouldn’t be the
company we are today. The same goes for our dedicated fans, friends,
families, and clients who go out of their way to share their love, thoughts,
and feedback. I thank you for helping us continue to be better people and
a better team. Thank you also for your support and care in the future,
because knowing that you are here with us gives us the courage to step
into tomorrow with a bolder vision and intentions. Let’s paint this world
with more possibilities and perspectives together.

Growing Together: 3 Years of Unlocking Creativity

  • 1.
  • 2. TABLE OF C ON TEN TS 03 Letter from the Founder 04 Mission, Who We Are, and Values 05 3 Years in Review 06 Growing Together and Doing More 10 Our Services and Creative Spaces 18 Creating More and The Years Ahead 19 How We Can Help
  • 3. HOW MUCH DIFFERENCE CAN ONE CHOICE MAKE At first, it doesn’t seem like a big deal. Sharing an idea, speaking up for others, or pausing to listen to those around you may be small acts of kindness. However, the magic unfolds when we add consistency, intentionality, and time. It shapes our entire environment, overt time defining the culture of how things are done and how things can be in the future. In other words, every decision we make has the power to create a ripple effect. We have the key to shifting the narrative at every moment in our lives. But how often are we aware of this? The pandemic woke us up to our blind spots. We’ve all been so busy working that we forgot to be human. We forgot to just be. As COVID halted our travel plans and “business as usual,” it also stopped us from running in the hamster wheel of mindless action. For the first time, everyone, including us at InnovatorsBoxÂź , found ourselves asking if this is really the best way to do what we do at work. For us, that meant rethinking how and what we serve the clientele. For me, while I loved in-person engagements, the weekly travel was starting to take a toll on my health. I had forgotten when I last felt physically healthy and recharged. I was juggling multiple projects, email threads, and communication timelines— frequently waking up at hotels, feeling confused about what city I was in. This was not sustainable. I also wondered how we could provide more proactive content and creative resources that others could use on their own, instead of only creating customized services when clients reached out to us for specific projects. Still, I didn’t know any other way. Until the pandemic shook everything up, I thought this was all there was. 18 months later, we’ve grown to realize we’re more resilient, human, and creative than we thought. Learning how to serve online took time, but I started to notice that the small moments were adding up. The intentional follow-up emails, hosting global innovators meetups to bring people together, creating free resilience guides, making music to celebrate innovators’ stories, and creating mascots to tell the story of creativity in a new way all brought us closer to helping one more innovator, team, or company who was feeling burned out, stressed and fatigued. It reminded me of how every small decision creates a powerful ripple effect. So yes, while the pandemic marked a halt to our pre-2020 growth, on looking back, it also helped us to grow in a transformative way that I had already been longing for. It pushed me to reconsider the power of small decisions, including making the time to look back at the past three years, even as we look at how we want to develop with you in the future. We may not know what life will give us, but we can always choose to be the protagonist and decide what to do, how to respond, and how to live the life we want in any situation. Looking back, I’m reminded of this key fact: we always have a choice, even in moments when it feels like we don’t. Even when you’re facing a pandemic that makes you feel powerless, the choice is always yours. You can make your dream a reality, but you have to work with intention. I humbly share our past three-year journey, in commitment to continuing those small decisions to make this world a better place with you. I hope this reflection encourages you to join us in the coming years as we move boundaries, help more people around the world, and teach them how to meet their full potential, no matter where they are or how they use their creativity. LET T ER FROM THE FOUNDER Sincerely, Monica H. Kang Founder & CEO

  • 6. People come to us to change something important that felt impossible before. How can we build a happy culture or a fast-growing team that feels like one? How can we stay creative when we don’t feel like we can trust each other? How can we work better together while working remotely? I get a twinkle in my eyes when I hear these questions. While the how and the what may differ in every project we work on, all projects stem from people wanting to bring out the best in each other. A desire for good culture, leadership, and team building stems from people wanting to be understood, valued, and loved for who they truly are. We’re hungry to be seen as human beings in the workplace, not just cogs with stringent stations doomed to transactional relationships. This is why the more difficult questions we get with each project, the deeper I challenge myself and my team to reflect on how we can understand people and bring out the best in them. This is the nuance that I’m grateful to have embraced in the past few years—prioritizing growth within ourselves so that we can be a better partner to our clients and communities. If we aren’t growing as a company, as teams, and as people, how can we help others to see how they can grow? Looking back, there were three things in particular that we doubled down our efforts on. BUILDING OUR NICHE Innovation is a broad space. We knew we could do a lot of different things in it, but to serve our audience best, it was important for us to dive deeper into a niche. This is why we decided to specialize in creative workplace and people development. No matter who we worked with, it all came back to the same key questions: » How can we build a creative workplace where everyone is free to thrive? » How can we encourage more empathetic, creative, and caring leaders? » How can we offer more tools and resources to help build creative resilience? While the projects we undertook with NBCUniversal, Dell, Bristol Myers Squibb, Johns Hopkins University, Freddie Mac, PepsiCo, One America, Georgia Tech University, and the Asian Leadership Conference were all different and unique, they were all connected to the niche in which we hoped to serve—helping to create a workplace where all could thrive and be creative. This meant honing how we deliver our services but also exploring how workshops, facilitation, and coaching could be expanded and repositioned. A lot of our worksheets stemmed from conversations we had with clients, who told us that they were so busy in day-to-day life that there wasn’t time to develop businesses as they wished to— strategically and intentionally. I understood that feeling all too well. The busier we get and the faster we grow, the more we forget that every interaction is an opportunity to connect, rethink, or get hurt. So from our client delivery to project management, we put a lot of care into doing more with less and designing the process to bring more ease and playfulness to our clients’ journey into adopting creative culture. Changing the way we work takes time, so we must consider new ways of working that feel enjoyable and stress-free. This is why over the past three years, while our projects were diverse, we were also more selective, in order to give our full focus to the culture, leadership, and team-building programs where our clients needed help. We’re honored to have been their guide in adopting a workplace for all, and we look forward to honing our craft further and helping other leaders to build their new workplace homes.

  • 8. 8 DOING MORE BY TRAVELING LESS Even before the pandemic, I was hungry to explore how we could do more without travel. At the time, I was traveling domestically (weekly) and internationally (quarterly). That’s not healthy or sustainable, and while our team is fully remote and working well across all time zones, I wasn’t able to give them full development support, as I was busy traveling, networking, and doing business development. When the pandemic forced us to stop all travel, the digital service development and creative content ideas I had put on hold for a long time finally came into full ideation and development. In fact, in 2020–2021, my schedule did a 180-degree turn as I went from weekly plane travel to a single flight for the entire year. Everything else was done online. Monica delivers! Her deep subject-matter expertise combined with her creativity, flexibility, and empathy make Monica an unbeatable facilitator. Monica is exceptionally skilled at meeting both people and business needs. She crafted an outstanding webinar for my company, and I would gladly work with her again. - Middle Border Forward It wasn’t easy at first. When we were first forced to cut out travel, we lost 90% of our business because we didn’t have an alternative program online. I wasn’t comfortable using Zoom and only downloaded it for the first time in March 2020. Now, 18 months later, we are finding more effective, easier ways to connect with our clients even when working remotely with one another. In the past, I could only do one project at a time, as we couldn’t be in multiple locations. But today, we serve clients in South Korea, catch up with team members in London, and do multiple client workshops and coaching sessions within the same day! Plus, reducing travel costs meant I could invest that back into digital assets such as more worksheets, creative productions like podcasts, music, and games, and more internal resources to permit cross-collaboration between the InnovatorsBox teams. I’m really excited to see how we can continue to serve more clients and communities while finding more creative ways to help access creativity learning and play at work. HOW WE GREW WITH OUR PEOPLE AND PARTNERS We’ve also grown our team during the pandemic and have team members from 7 different countries and cities including Colombia, Canada, Spain, Indonesia, South Korea, United States, and the United Kingdom. We’ve grown by also doing more cross partnership services: Adapt to Grow is with FocusUSA to provide creative marketing services. Culture of Analytics is with Proximo to help build a culture of data and people analytics. Mindfulness in the workplace with Woo Woo Company to help build a mindful workplace.

  • 9. Before In 2018 we were mapping out a new program, and in need of a facilitator for a key part—the Innovation Slam. When we came across Monica’s resume and application (she initially applied as a participant) we knew we had found our facilitator! After Monica has such high energy and embodies what she teaches. I leave every meeting feeling creative, inspired, and excited for what’s to come. As an event facilitator, she is skilled, thoughtful, adaptable, and attentive to all the voices in the room. Council of Korean Americans - Dr. Abraham Kim Asia Foundation - Amanda Bensel Before I was introduced to Monica through a mutual friend. We began talking about her work with organizations to achieve creativity and innovation. Our work is educating the next generation of leaders, and we invite leaders like Monica to teach and lead conversations with young leaders. After Monica consistently delivers in two areas. First, she creates a safe space for young leaders to talk about their shared experiences and challenges, such as career development and network engagement, and receive support from their peers. Second, Monica guides our young leaders to step out of their comfort zones and think more creatively. This helps them communicate more effectively and become more impactful. INNOVATORSBOX LLC © 2021.

  • 14. BUILDING MORE WITHIN All of this growth was possible because we spent a lot of time looking inward. What kind of culture did we want to build at InnovatorsBox? What did we want to speak up about in society? Who did we want to bring onto our team and why? How could we have workflows that empower our people? As our team grew from five to twenty across seven countries, I realized how important it was to invest more time inward and really listen, in order to improve how we do things every day. Without a strong internal structure of our own, how could we help others build their foundations? With that in mind, we spent a lot of time listening, optimizing, and improving how we work, how we show up, and how we listen to one another. That’s where all the new magic evolved and how it fueled our creativity and innovation in how we serve—all while having fun. Two priorities stood out that helped to build the culture we have today. First was listening and creating spaces for team members to speak up. The best ideas, such as our quarterly team meetings, Slack implementation, and new operational processes, started because our team members asked for them. Our people continue to express how they wanted more time to get to know each other and work together. That led to finding more ways to include different team members in projects, as well as initiating our IB BackStage blog series. In August 2021, in celebration of our 6-year company birthday, we started highlighting a different team member every Monday to share why they do what they do and why they love it. This permitted everyone to share their thoughts with others, who may not otherwise have known the depth and care they have brought into the team! Our second priority was optimizing workflow to bring out the best in everyone. I loved the question that one of our colleagues raised: “How can work feel more like play?” When we work based on our strengths and see opportunities to voice our thoughts, it feels more fun. Our voices matter, and we are more likely to contribute and create! So, we spent a lot of time learning more about each other and our strengths, communication styles, work styles, and preferences for project bandwidth. We’re all in different time zones, on different project plans, with different communication styles. Having one workflow and forcing everyone to follow it isn’t enjoyable or productive. So as the project manager and arranger lead, I focused on optimizing every step we could to make everything more pleasant and easier to do. If we are coordinating eight people to get one thing done, how can we streamline the process so that all eight people have clarity on where the project is going? This permitted us to explore new software and workflows that not only brought out team members’ strengths but left us all feeling better able to grow because we were enjoying what we were doing. Personally, I know that what I was able to do in the past three years was significantly greater than what I used to think because I focused on amplifying my own strengths and those of my team. I can’t wait to bring out our voices even more as we continue to grow together in the coming years. INNOVATORSBOX LLC © 2021. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED 14

  • 16. CREATING MORE FOR SCALE We also thought a lot about how we could scale impact. How can we help more clients to create a happy workplace? How can we help more innovators to build their creative muscles? The pandemic pushed us to reimagine scale and sustainable impact. Not only have we learned to serve online, but we’ve been challenged to rethink what tools and resources we can invest in that will really help innovators and leaders to rethink growth, even when they’re not sitting in a workshop. This question led us to host virtual Global Innovators Meetups and create space for innovators around the world to connect, producing creative content (in the form of podcasts, music, videos, cooking shows, children’s books, and games) that inspires our audience to rethink how they can be creative, no matter what they do. It also led to the birth of InnovatorsBox Academy, where we launched online training courses such as Rethink Facilitation, Rethink Diversity, and Rethink Leading, and InnovatorsBox Studios, which produces original music, podcasts, videos, and more! The challenge of finding different ways to learn outside of a workshop and make learning feel like play inspired us to reimagine learning itself. We got to experiment and build a lot of new content, which empowered both existing and new fans around the world to realize that they are not alone. We look forward to continuing to challenge methods of learning and training, ever-redefining content consumption on a global level. Of course, we plan to do all of this while still expanding our workshop, coaching, facilitation, and consulting services to scale. “We are always pushing the edge with training facilitation to empower youth and equip caring adults to better build relationships so in learning about InnovatorsBox and the training techniques it provides, it was an easy choice to use Monica’s materials to inform our work with youth and adults. We will use these products in our virtual and in-person training workshops to provide a great experience for all involved.” Derrin Slack, Founder ProActIndy InnovatorsBox’s products will help support the team building and ideation moments during our 48-hour hackathon that are core to the Jam experience and will be even more needed in an all-remote environment! DC Service Jam GIVING FIRST While we’ve always been a give-first company, we focused more on this aspect during the pandemic. While we lost 90% of our initial review in Spring 2021, we still dove deep and tried to help others as much as we could. We created remote working EQ guides and meeting tip resources, as everyone was struggling to stay connected online. We created global meetups and mindset workshops to bring innovators together and remind them that they could do this. We also created a product donation campaign in Fall 2020, donating over 600+ InnovatorsBox card games to over 20+ organizations in the United States to make creativity learning accessible and permit diverse communities to find connectivity, creativity, and courage with one another. These efforts were made to serve our community and let us continue to do what we do best: transform our society into a more creative, people-first, culture-centric place. We’re so happy to hear how these contributions made a difference in these communities! It encourages us to create even more tools that will help others to find the courage and reimagine how they thrive at work. INNOVATORSBOX LLC © 2021. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED 16
  • 17. WE WANT TO IMPROVE TOO While we’re proud of all that we’ve done and humbled by the recognition and support, we know that there’s still a lot of room for growth. We’re eager to continue growing and learning to be a better partner, a better company, and better people, serving innovators like you around the world. A few things that we still struggle with but hope to do better at are: (1) Consistent community development and (2) Finding our audiences faster While we’ve provided a lot of community programs since 2016, serving high-quality programs, events, and content consistently (for free) requires a lot of attention and details that we haven’t been able to do well enough. Not having a dedicated team member to focus on community development has sometimes made it hard to continue at full steam when we get busy with client projects and other internal development. We’ve also been more mindful not to allow team burnout, as I found myself getting tired, forced to post articles on schedule. In order to focus on providing content that was truly driven by joy, we let go of the expectation that it had to be done monthly or on a certain timeline. While our monthly newsletter is one space that we’ve kept up regularly since 2016, we’d love to get better at producing other resources to serve our audiences more consistently. We also want to improve at reaching our new fans and communities. As we continue to work online, it’s become important to make our tools and resources more accessible and easier to understand, as we can’t explain them in person in a conference hallway like we used to. Describing the importance of people’s work and culture development is a marathon project, and at times, I realize I need to do a better job explaining in order to find the people who need our support faster. At the same time, while serving online has made it easier, there are still a lot of barriers to timeline access—like working with certain time zones or internet access situations. As we continue to support our clients and new fans, we hope to find more ways to make creativity learning accessible, playful, and sustainable, no matter where they are. Our intention is to help billions upskill with creativity, and we know that all of our efforts will help make a difference to someone out there who really needs this support to rethink creativity and thrive.

  • 18. THE YEARS AHEAD What will really matter ten years from now? Now that six years have passed, I’d argue it’s not the how but the why that matters. Just when I thought that the year-long projects made the most difference, I’d get an email from a fan sharing how a podcast episode we did a few months back gave them the confidence to speak up for the first time. It’s a humble reminder that you never know how you can help others find new courage and perspective. So, I’ve stopped overthinking about what will be impactful or not. Everything you do can make an impact if you focus on that one audience or individual that really needs it. Whether it’s a free resource guide (like the one we made during the pandemic to help remote EQ building) or a year-long culture development program where clients share how this is the first time they’ve felt safe to talk about their workplace challenges, all engagements matter equally when you put in the intention. That’s how I want to move forward at InnovatorsBox—as a company that treats all steps as equally important catalysts for new thinking and hope. One thing the pandemic affirmed is how fast the way we work evolves and how much we all hunger to connect as human beings. As our surroundings change and push us to adapt how we serve, we commit to staying true to our why and making sure that everything we do is really helping to unlock creativity for all. Looking at the next few years and what we hope to accomplish, I’m excited to focus on our consistent dedication to growing together with you. So whether you work with us in year-long culture and leadership training programs or see us at Spotify, YouTube, GIPHY, or even in Hollywood one day, I hope we’ll register as the same heartwarming friend who wants to bring more color and possibility to the world and help everyone to live their best lives, no matter where they work or live. We’ll continue to listen more carefully and work harder to note how we can help you as you grapple with all the questions regarding the future of work. Upskilling and reskilling for the future will only increase, but how we learn has to evolve even faster. This is why, as we continue to provide quality custom culture, leadership, and team-building programs, we look forward to diving deeper into podcasts, music, games, and other creative storytelling content and services to make creativity access and learning more fun, available, and relatable. We hope that through these developments, you’ll learn more about your creativity while you play. All we ask in return is this: Please continue to work with us to help make this world shine with more color. For some, that means continuing to invest in your team’s creative thinking and safe room building, while for others, it’s learning how to step into your voice of courage as who you really are. Wherever you may be, I want to remind you that you matter, and your voice matters. Thank you for taking this journey with us. We look forward to unlocking more possibilities together. GRATITUDE We’re here today because of you. Thank you for all of your support, care, and trust in our mission to help unlock creativity for all. I want to give a special shoutout to our team in particular, both old and new members. In the past six years, we’ve had over thirty different people come and go, and without their touch and care in what we do, we wouldn’t be the company we are today. The same goes for our dedicated fans, friends, families, and clients who go out of their way to share their love, thoughts, and feedback. I thank you for helping us continue to be better people and a better team. Thank you also for your support and care in the future, because knowing that you are here with us gives us the courage to step into tomorrow with a bolder vision and intentions. Let’s paint this world with more possibilities and perspectives together. INNOVATORSBOX LLC © 2021. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED 18
