Movable Ink isn’t simply a place where top brands come to improve their marketing performance — it’s also a space for talented tech professionals to forge friendships, learn new skills and champion each other. For Melissa Laffin, it’s where she had the chance to pursue a new career path and gain invaluable insights and support from her peers, all of which is made possible by the company’s open, empowering culture. “Movable Ink goes above and beyond to prioritize employee well-being and inspires every person to show up to work with authenticity,” she said. Whether they’re taking part in a virtual baking class or delivering a new solution for a retail giant, employees constantly learn from each other and evolve in the process.

‘Pausing for Equity’
Holding Space for DEI
Smith is an advocate for holding space — in companywide initiatives and the minutiae of daily planning. “We implemented a ‘pause for equity’ OKR to coach decision-makers on how to concretely think through whom they are including versus excluding,” they said, noting that ERGs help hold space both in and beyond the company. “The programs and events we offer reflect our global teams by offering opportunities to share about and invest back into their local communities.” For example, the company’s INKlusive ERG celebrated U.S. and UK Pride month, donating to trans-serving organizations and more.

CHASE YOUR DREAMS
Grow with support from peers
Melissa Laffin
Senior Content Marketing Manager
From the moment Melissa Laffin joined Movable Ink, her peers and leaders encouraged her to pursue her passions. So when she decided to transition out of sales and fulfill her dream of becoming a marketing leader, she received the support and tools she needed to do so. Now, Laffin strives to help her direct reports chase their own ambitions. “My ultimate goal as a manager is to evoke the same inspiring feelings I felt when first coming aboard by ensuring everyone on my team feels supported, capable and set up for optimal success,” she said.
Every day I feel supported to the fullest extent to be myself, but I also feel challenged to reach an even higher potential, which is why I believe many ‘Inkers’ stay for the long haul.
HIT GOALS + HAVE FUN
Stay engaged and balanced
While Roger Rodriguez and his peers may have encountered a few challenges when they first started working remotely, the benefits of this type of environment have outweighed them all. “It empowers individuals to get their best work done while acknowledging the unpredictability of real life,” he said. Rodriguez added that the company’s events team succeeds in creating a fun culture through virtual gatherings, including cocktail-mixing classes. When he’s not getting to know his coworkers, he can log off and enjoy the important things, such as early family dinners.
