Like many teams during these challenging times, InfluxData has shifted to remote work and has introduced a number of measures to ensure sales morale and productivity remain high.

They are leveraging Slack and Zoom for daily standups, have incorporated a “bring a child or pet” to work day and have even started remote social events such as a “drawing class”.

Alicia has only been with InfluxData for a single month, but she is about to implement a process first actioned at a previous role. All commercial departments will draw up an Executive Business Review together.
