What are some social events your company does?

For over seven years, we have partnered with the Wonderfund (www.wonderfundma.org) to pair Acquians with the holiday wish lists of 200 local children. All Acquians are welcome to participate through a virtual option, and we have a lot of fun watching the gifts pile up in our headquarters!

We’re helping a regional department store use customer data to transform their business. Responding to challenges like those the retail sector has faced in recent years takes vision and courage. I love partnering with customers willing to blaze a new trail.

Amy P.

Senior Director, Global Talent Development

How do you empower your team to be more creative?

The trick to empowering creativity is encouraging frequent communication and iteration. Embrace behaviors, not platitudes, that remind the team there is no such thing as failure. Embed creativity and make it more than a tagline. Show that nothing is unsalvageable; focus on ‘why’ things occurred, and make everything a learning opportunity.

Mary

Senior Manager, User Experience

How do your team's ideas influence the company's direction?

We don't just follow trends, we set them! We influence the direction of our company by immersing ourselves in a user-centric culture. Partnering with customers and vendors, we create open-source digital experiences that connect brands with their customers. Together, we are paving the way for the most dynamic user experience in the market.
