Celebrating International Women's Day With International Women's Day being marked on a Saturday this year, we didn't want to miss marking the occasion with the wonderful women at Okarno. Today, we honor the incredible women who inspire, lead, and drive change in our company and beyond. Their dedication, creativity, and resilience are the pillars of our success. To celebrate the efforts and achievements of the amazing women at Okarno, we enjoyed a delightful day filled with cakes and goody bags. It was a small token of our appreciation for their hard work and dedication. 👏 👏 👏 #InternationalWomensDay #IWD2025 #WomenInLeadership #GenderEquality #CelebrateWomen

We’ve seen some fantastic interaction all across site as we celebrate all things customer experience & we’re not even half way through the week.!
I facilitated a session this morning as part of Customer Experience Week for Okarno staff. Looking at Order Journey's and the number of people that can be involved. It generated lots of questions and everyone wanted to see it improve to do better for our customers. #customerexperience
