The Culture
The best thing about working at Salomon is:
You always have a coworker up for a chairlift meeting or a decompression session, afternoon run. Oh, and the fondue.
When we’re not working, we’re:
Spending time with family, friends and participating in the sports we all love.
What we’re reading:
Playing to Win, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, Untamed, New York Times, Buzzfeed, Outside
What we’re listening to:
Podcasts: Rich Roll, Brene Brown, Work-Play-Love, Dan Patrick Show, How I Built This, She Explores
If they made a movie about our workplace, it would be called:
A Tale of Two Regions, Powder Dazed and Confused and during Covid, Groundhog Day & Work From Home Office Space
Inclusion in the outdoors matters because:
The outdoors is for everyone. Every person should be able to experience the health, wellness and spiritual benefits that nature provides.
Five years down the line, it’s our hope that:
More people will experience the outdoors as part of their everyday life. It will create a shared sense of responsibility and stewardship for the preservation of natural spaces. Another outcome is that this increased participation will normalize the idea that the outdoors is truly for everyone. We won’t have to say it. It will be inherently understood.
