I was thinking about what you said regarding the quarterly planning session. The way I see it, we should probably split the agenda into two shorter meetings instead of one long afternoon block. That tends to work better for the team because energy dips after the second hour.
For the location, I checked with the facilities coordinator and the Cedar Room is open both mornings next week. She mentioned that the projector was recently replaced, so the display should be sharper than last time. I also asked about catering and they can do a simple breakfast setup with coffee, tea, and pastries.
On the topic of the new reporting dashboard, I spent some time reviewing the layout and I think we need to move the summary metrics to the top. Several people said they had to scroll too far to see the numbers they care about. Let me know if that aligns with what you were picturing.
I can draft a revised outline by Thursday afternoon.

A Quiet Thank You For Your Recent Stay
Because you stayed at a Marriot Hotel or a Marriot partnered hotel within the past year, we would like to send you a set of two luxury cooling pillows. This is provided at no charge to households in your area; you will not be billed for the pillows.
After completing a very brief questionnaire, you can also claim a 2-night stay at select locations, provided at no charge. The stay nights are included as part of this program and will not appear as a billable item.
One pillow set per household. Total pillow allocation is 800 sets. This program ends tomorrow.

What Makes These Cooling Pillows Stand Out
|
|
1. The surface layer uses a breathable knit material that draws warmth away from the head and neck throughout the night.
|
|
2. The core features a gel-infused memory layer that adjusts slowly as you shift positions during sleep.
|
| | |
|
3. A series of internal air channels helps maintain a consistent temperature, reducing the buildup of warmth under the cover.
|
|
4. The pillow shell includes moisture-wicking fibers that help keep the fabric feeling dry and cool to the touch.
|
| | |
|
5. The fill is designed to provide medium-firm support, balancing neck alignment with a soft top feel for side and back sleepers.
|
|
6. Each pillow is made with a removable outer cover that can be washed separately, helping to maintain a clean sleep surface.

Quantities are determined by program. Stay dates and participating locations are assigned based on program scheduling and current room availability.

I spoke with the regional manager about moving the team offsite next month and she was open to it as long as the budget stays within the same range as last quarter. The conference center near the river has a block of rooms set aside for the second week, and the pricing looked reasonable when I pulled the estimate.
We would need to submit a short proposal by Friday so the events team can lock the reservation. I was also thinking about arranging a group dinner at that Italian place we tried last spring, since everyone seemed to enjoy it and it is close to the hotel.
Let me know whether you want me to reach out to them about menu options or if you prefer to handle that directly. I can also prepare a brief update for the team so they know what to expect regarding travel.
