Renamed Ten Spot in 2020, the company not only rebranded to expand beyond wellness but now offers a centralized solution for companies to increase employee productivity, boost retention, and build strong cultures. </p> <p><b style="font-weight: normal;"> </b></p> <p>When COVID hit, Sammy learned that customers were facing a similar issue: how do we ensure employees feel like they work for the same company when they are not in the same place? Through research, she discovered that leadership was struggling to manage distributed teams. This led to Ten Spot’s expansion to the workforce engagement platform it is today.</p> <p> </p> <p>With a BA in Fine Arts from the University of Miami, Sammy is a certified Pilates instructor who brings a blend of grit and imagination to the zillions of tasks that confront every startup.
