Just look at those crock pots! Congrats to the entire FORTÉ team in Cincinnati! We're just a little bit jealous that we didn't ALL receive an invitation. 😋 #FORTÉ #teambuilding #Cincinnati #chilicookoff
🌶️ Teamwork with a Kick — Cincinnati Style! 🌶️ Today, Shannon O'Reilly and I had the pleasure of visiting FORTÉ’s Cincinnati Branch for a day that brought the perfect blend of connection and spice — thanks to a Chili Cookoff that showcased not only culinary talent but some serious team spirit. It was great to spend time with the group, share a few laughs (and maybe a few secret chili ingredients), and see firsthand the pride this team brings to their work. We’re excited about all the opportunities ahead in this market — and proud to support such a strong, engaged team. #FORTÉCulture #Teamwork #CincinnatiBranch #ChiliCookoff #EmployeeEngagement #LeadershipOnTheRoad #WorkplaceVibes #GrowthOpportunities
