Yesterday was the second and last day of our TSS Blue Leadership Summit in Warsaw, Poland. It was another inspirational summit, and we will share more when we have the official pictures. But this is how we started the day, how they made sure the energy was flowing.

Today we are kicking off the TSS Blue Leadership Summit in Warsaw. Beyond Ready, the future favors the bold. We are ready for 1,5 days of being inspired, learning new insights, and networking with all the colleagues in the group. Getting to know the people across departments and borders. Actually, we started the morning with a fun networking game.

TSS Summer Event Yesterday, we had our Summer event at Fort de Batterijen in Nieuwegein. It was a summer event in June with Autumn weather, but that didn't stop us from having fun and enjoying some R&R time together. Our TSS team had arranged a fun escape room experience that could be played by a large group. And one of the pictures clearly identifies the winning team, who are rightfully proud of beating all the others. Then, armed with sweaters and coats, we enjoyed a great barbecue and spent some quality time with colleagues. Thank you, team TSS, for arranging this; everyone clearly enjoyed it. In true TSS spirit, we didn't let a little rain ruin the evening.
