Lena Escoto
project manager | harmonizer
Hometown: Arendal, Norway
Lena is the closest thing automätik has to a magical Christmas elf. Having grown up in the North Pole (Norway is close enough, right?), she found herself swapping the snow for the sun down under in Australia where she completed her bachelor’s degree at Alphacrucis College. Lena’s career took off in Sydney where she gathered a plethora of experience across event planning and execution, project management, and travel logistics.
As an Account Manager, Lena exhibits an unwavering service-first mentality and offers an infectious smile that comes free. She loves walking alongside our clients with flexibility and a commitment to delivering results that go over and beyond. With exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail, Lena is passionate about splashing her magic to keep automätik’s “engine” running smoothly.
Off the clock, you can find Lena accomplishing new adventures and discovering the best coffee with her husband and two daughters. Lena’s love for travel, family, and friends sees her skipping around the world, but not without seeking one of these essentials: hiking trails, the ocean, or good gelato.
Six Useful Pre-Session Event Activities
If you are facilitating a meeting or a corporate event, it is always good to begin with some sort of pre-session activity. You may think these are unnecessary and waste time, but an interactive and constructive pre-session activity sets the stage for a successful and productive meeting.
Are Your PowerPoint Slides for the Audience or Are They a Facilitator Crutch
When you hear the word “PowerPoint,” what comes to your mind? Many would say their thoughts include boring corporate events, long-winded presentations, and possible snoring. PowerPoint slide decks can be illustrative, dynamic visual aids, but they are more commonly designed in a way that prompts audiences to nap rather than engage.
Banish Clip Art!
While clip art may have once served a useful purpose for you or your organization, there are now a plethora of ways to avoid it and find higher quality alternatives instead. We promise, your quest to banish clip art will be easier than you think, and, ultimately, by using better images and illustrations in your presentations and documents, you’ll produce more impactful work.
