As an executive assistant, you hold a pivotal role in shaping your company’s corporate culture and gifting practices. With the holiday season around the corner, the opportunity to choose gifts that reflect your organization’s values and commitment to social responsibility is right at your fingertips — with Peace by Piece International.
Rather than opting for the usual promotional items that often lack personality and meaning, why not consider gifts that truly make a difference?
Our job — and our joy — at Peace by Piece is to connect you with our vetted partners who create beautiful, high-quality, handmade gifts. Whether you want to build gift sets of smaller items or give each recipient one luxurious and meaningful gift, we have customizable and brandable options for you.
One standout partner in the luxury space is Itza Wood, a group of artists that not only craft stunning items but also empower communities through dignified work. Their gift range includes bowls, serving trays, and charcuterie boards made from sustainably sourced, FSC-certified wood. All provide an opportunity to give gifts that resonate both style and substance. Here are just a few ideas for you (click to shop).
We can even help you dream up the perfect custom item to represent your brand, like we did for a recent event with the 49ers Foundation. According to Forbes, this type of alignment with your brand’s identity and mission can be a game-changer when it comes to how much a recipient appreciates your efforts.
Your Power As an Executive Assistant
In today’s world, consumers are increasingly aware of the stories behind the products they purchase. When you choose gifts like these from Peace by Piece, you’re not only sharing the story of your brand, you’re sharing a story of positive change, playing a direct role in supporting artisans who are breaking the cycle of poverty in their communities. The sustainable income generated through their work in creating these gifts fosters economic growth and provides makers with a chance at a brighter future.
Imagine the impact of gifting an exquisite charcuterie board made from responsibly sourced wood. Go further by pairing it with jams and spreads that empower underserved communities worldwide. Your gift becomes a narrative of resilience, sustainability, and empowerment. Each piece is a reminder that every choice we make — every dollar we spend — has the potential to uplift others. By choosing gifts with a purpose, you are aligning your corporate gifting programs with values that matter — you’re walking the walk and showing the people who receive these gifts that your corporation stands for more than the bottom line.
Why Quality Matters
The answer might seem obvious, but the reality is that many corporations keep doing the thing that employees say they hate – buying inexpensive, meaningless promotional products to “check a box” — gifts that often end up forgotten or discarded, losing the original intent of showing care and appreciation. Not only does this communicate a lack of genuine care, it’s terrible for the planet. In contrast, when you select meaningful gifts, you send a message of thoughtfulness and respect to your employees, clients, and stakeholders – all with sustainability in mind.
Companies are always seeking new ways to be leaders — and gifting is an often-overlooked pathway to doing so. That’s where we come in.
Customization and Brand Identity
One of the key advantages of working with a company like ours is the ability to customize and brand your gifts. Whether you want to engrave your company logo on a stunning serving tray or create a unique gift set that tells a story, we can help you every step of the way. Customization allows you to create a lasting impression, reinforcing your brand identity while simultaneously promoting social good.
By incorporating personalized messages or branding elements — which can also be done through custom impact cards that share the positive outcomes coming from your handmade gifts — you transform a simple gift into a meaningful experience that resonates with and excites the recipient. This thoughtful approach not only enhances your corporate image as a leader but also fosters a sense of belonging and appreciation among employees and clients.
Coordinated Gifting Solutions
With our streamlined process, you can enjoy the convenience of coordinated drop shipping. This means that instead of worrying about logistics and distribution, you can focus on what you do best – managing your business and supporting your executives. We’ll handle the details, ensuring that your gifts arrive on time and in perfect condition.
Embrace the Spirit of Giving
As you prepare for the holiday season, consider the impact of your corporate gifting choices. Opting for gifts that do good doesn’t just reflect your company’s values; it helps to cultivate a culture of kindness, sustainability, and awareness. With Peace by Piece International, you can confidently select gifts that embody these principles, making your role as an EA even more rewarding.
In a world filled with disposable items, your role as a gatekeeper of corporate gifting can have a profound impact. Your choices matter. When you choose gifts that do good, you can watch as they create ripples of positive change both within and beyond your organization.
