The Ritual of Tea Time at Orbitkey
Every week, the team at Orbitkey gather around our meeting space for a morning ritual known to us as “tea time,” complete with a rotating host known as the “tea master.” While we share stories from the weekend, the tea master selects the tea and tea time begins with a unique story behind their tea choice. From there, we discuss our week, update each other on our tasks and goals while planning for the projects ahead.
