What’s New? The Ninja Forms January 2024 Update

Last year, at our annual off-site gathering, we embarked on a fascinating journey of self-discovery through the Motivations AI personality assessment. To our delight, we found that the predominant trait among us is being a “Driver.”

You might wonder what exactly being a “Driver” entails. It means we’re hardwired to push forward relentlessly, to face challenges head-on, and to navigate through obstacles all the way to the finish line. Essentially, we excel at making things happen.

So, what’s the plan for 2024? We’re leaning hard into what makes us tick. We’re all in on our “Driver” nature but with a twist. Our strategy? “Put people over everything else while challenging norms and embracing a brash, fun, and outspoken identity.” That’s right. We’re doubling down on our strengths but making sure we’re doing it in a way that’s all about people, shaking things up, and having a blast while we’re at it.

Here’s to a year of advancing, overcoming, and finishing strong together.

P.S. If you are lucky enough to have a Capricorn and Aquarius 🥳 on your team ( like we do ), wish them a happy birthday 🎂 !
