​ON is six. 🎂

​Six years of ops people showing up for each other: sharing advice, swapping stories, figuring things out together, or sometimes, just sitting in the group chat going "👀".

​We wouldn't exist without the people who keep showing up. So we're throwing a party to say thank you.

​Join us to celebrate the power of connection. Without our community members, there would be no ON. We're so grateful for each and every member of our community who has taken time to keep their ops peers sane over the past years - and hopefully many more to come! 🙏

​This is your space to...

• ​Connect with fellow ops people across roles, industries, and backgrounds in a joyous, welcoming space 💜

• ​Share your ops journey and reflect together on the lessons, and the wins 💬

• ​Celebrate our community together 🎉

​What to expect 👀

​A lovely, informal evening to celebrate with ops friends:

• ​Registration with a warm welcome from the ON Team 🤗

• ​Some light bites: summer snacks and cupcakes 🍰

• ​Casual icebreakers to help you connect 🧊

• ​Lots of time to meet new and reconnect with old ops friends 👋

• ​A group photo to help us remember this special day ​📸

• ​Getting your professional headshot taken by our photographer Iyanka Cooray 📸

​Been here a while, just joined, or simply curious about ON? Either way, we'd love to see you there!
