Welcome to

The ANNIE Model

Unlocking Human Connection. One Team at a Time.

The workplace may have changed, but our need for connection hasn’t. In today’s evolving work environment—whether remote, hybrid, or in-person—teams thrive when they feel connected, understood, and engaged. That’s where The ANNIE Model comes in.

The Elements of The ANNIE Model

The 5 elements that form the building blocks of The ANNIE Model are Assemble, Network, Nurture, Inspire and Experience – each representing a foundation for cultivating a strong and cohesive team. 

Assemble

gathering in one place, in person or virtually, for a common purpose

Network

interact and engage for mutual benefit

Nurture

care for and encourage growth or development

Inspire

create a feeling, especially a positive one

Experience

event or occurrence that leaves an impression

What is The ANNIE Model?

5 fundamental elements

that serve as the building blocks for creating a strong and cohesive team foundation

Flexibility for a team to choose

which elements they want to prioritize based on specific needs and goals of the team

Organizations can create a

customized team connection program based on the elements that resonate most with their teams

Why The ANNIE Model?

Because how we work has shifted, but why we connect hasn’t.

Employees want more than tasks and to-do lists—they want to feel valued, aligned, and included. The ANNIE Model is built for modern workplaces seeking real engagement, not just surface-level interaction.

Through dynamic, thoughtful, and fun team-building experiences aligned with each ANNIE element, your organization can unlock the power of connection and drive stronger collaboration, trust, and performance.
