Workshop- The Creative Workplace Lives Up to Its Name
Stephanie Ringer must have a great sense of humor. That's what I thought as I read two recent articles about the entrepreneur and her business, Workshop – The Creative Workplace. The inspiringly successful company provides a range of services, from simple rental of meeting space to fully-catered team building exercise sessions. Fun and creative sessions.
Ms Ringer was featured in a blog at Louisville's WHAS11, "Louisville Native Helps Baby Boomers Change Jobs." Writer Claudia Coffey praises the company's program that helps small businesses progress. She describes:
"Louisville native Stephanie Ringer went from working in insurance to launching a company that helps Baby Boomers change jobs, even become entrepreneurs.
"It's an idea that landed her in Money magazine's May issue.
"If you're thinking about changing jobs, Ringer has an interesting way to get the juices flowing. How about spinning a plate, frog hopping or hula hooping."
Ringer and the company, co-owned by Jenness Bunn, were also highlighted in the Business First article, "Workshop Takes Businesses on adventures to Build Staff Rapport, Give Back to Community."
Correspondent Whitney Harrod described a team exercise she observed there, and described:
"The Wells Fargo group was participating in Team Adventures, one of three programs and services offered by Workshop. For the adventures, participants get clues, complete tasks and work toward a common goal, according to Workshop’s Web site. . . .
"During an economy that had many businesses cutting their staffs, Workshop launched Team Adventures in 2009 to help recharge companies’ employees and get them excited to work."
From its headquarters in Louisville, Kentucky, Workshop—The Creative Workplace helps workers build connections, develop stronger teams, and launch careers. We're glad to see them get some recognition for their unique contributions.
