The d\u00e9cor was designed not just to be seen, but to be experienced by everyone\u2014regardless of age, background or budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/news\/files\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-23-at-12.53.05-2.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"695\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/news\/files\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-23-at-12.53.05-2-695x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-788255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/news\/files\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-23-at-12.53.05-2-695x1024.jpeg 695w, https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/news\/files\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-23-at-12.53.05-2-204x300.jpeg 204w, https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/news\/files\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-23-at-12.53.05-2-768x1131.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/news\/files\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-23-at-12.53.05-2-1043x1536.jpeg 1043w, https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/news\/files\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-23-at-12.53.05-2.jpeg 1086w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-it-matters-investing-in-people\"><strong>Why It Matters: Investing in People<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Festive d\u00e9cor is more than lights and ornaments\u2014it\u2019s an investment in human experience.
