2020 Forte Group Recap: Key Numbers
Categories
2020 was an unusual year for many of us with its ups and downs, crushed plans, and unexpected opportunities. It was a year of “can you see me?”, “you’re on mute” and “how did you set that virtual background?” meetings. A year of taking risks, overcoming obstacles, adapting to turbulent times, and doing our best to stay safe, sane, and positive.
On the positive side, there have been many things that brightened up this year. In many ways, we got to know our colleagues (and their families and their pets) better, and managed to convert the time we’d spent in traffic jams into more sleep, family, or exercise time.
This year Forte Group adjusted, just like all of us: We supported our clients by helping them overcome the unique challenges that came their way, we switched to a work-from-home model, launched a host of new internal initiatives, opened new offices, and more.
We decided to wrap up this year through the Infographics that highlights the most memorable moments and numbers for us.
