Initiative Spotlight
OneDay 2023: Igniting Innovation for Louisiana's Future
OneDay is a dynamic, 24-hour event that challenges LWCC employees to innovate and collaborate for a greater impact. With a focus on celebrating and elevating Louisiana, participants ideate solutions to benefit the company and the state as a whole.
Event Recap
For LWCC’s inaugural event, employees came together across departments to form teams and dedicate one day to innovate a product or initiative of their choosing. The only caveat was that whatever they developed would need to support the Louisiana Loyal movement, whether that was improving the organization, the community, or the state.
The 24-hour timeline began on Thursday, March 9 and concluded with project presentations and the selection of winners on Friday, March 10, 2023. In total, 12 teams comprised of 87 employees worked on projects that ranged from a competitive pricing tool to a community garden. These teams were supplied with workspace for collaboration, unlimited access to LWCC facilities over the 24-hour period, and tools such as flip charts, notebooks, and presentation templates.
At the end of OneDay, each team was given five minutes to present their project to a panel of judges, including LWCC President and CEO Kristin Wall, LWCC Board Vice Chair Tommy Huval, and Young Entrepreneurs Academy Chair and Champion of Louisiana Deborah Sternberg. Complete with walk-up music, each team’s presentation was delivered with thoughtful and thorough detail.
“I am so proud. All of the ideas were spectacular,” said Kristin Wall. “Now, my challenge to all of you is how might we keep this energy and engagement going? How might we execute some of these fabulous ideas?”
The Winning Projects
While the purpose of OneDay is to foster autonomy, innovation, and cross-team relationships, “winners” are selected by both the judges panel and by peers. This year’s winners are:
