Global Team Meeting

On June 23, CEO Mary Berner held the Global Team Meeting at DeWitt Wallace auditorium. The speech was streamed live to RDA locations across the globe.

Mary stressed a feeling of optimism about the company's future proclaiming that RDA is "walking down a different street." She told employees that they will determine how quickly new business ventures will arise and begin accumulating revenue. She also guaranteed transparency and communication within RDA from top to bottom.

Intern Robert Guliano was there to hear Mary talk about several things from the direction of the company to her childhood encounters with nuns.

RDA Employees Begin Move To White Plains

The first wave of RDA employees moved in to the new White Plains offices on June 21. The transition received rave reviews. Perhaps most prevalent was the spectacular view from the 18th floor of Westchester One. However, the view didn't seem to be quite as spectacular as the coffee because the office ran dry by 10 a.m.


RDA intern Robert Guliano was there for what proved to be an eventful morning in White Plains that had everything from a coffee shortage to a missing intern lost in a White Plains mall. The intern's name? Well, it wasn't Waldo.
