Don't Blame the Business Trip


Ben Stein in the NYT on 3/21/09 had a great article. Basically, it was don't blame the business trip. Business travel is not the enemy. Business meetings: not the enemy. Yes, it's hard to see government money being given to entertain bailed-out companies in a lavish way, but the problem is that that animosity toward ill-advised travel has led to fear in business, and business people have been cancelling meetings left and right to forestall criticism.

Business meetings are not a waste of time. They're often necessary. It's important to have Face to Face meetings, especially now as so many companies are setting new goals, having reorgs and more. Read the entire article. Meetings cannot be replaced by mass emails and teleconferences. Now's the time to get together and meet!

TeamBuilding Unlimited can help you facilitate your meeting or add team building to your meeting. We will incorporate your goals and objectives, agenda, jargon and buzzwords and specific participants, thus reinforcing the purpose of your meeting.

Starting at 6 p.m., you will join 5-10 other sleuths to become a team as you become involved in the Crime of Your Life. Who killed Colonel Mustard? Was it Miss Peacock? Professor Plum? Nurse White? Mr. Green? you? or was it Children's Librarian Eva Volin?

You will get your Just Dessert after the mystery, and their will be many! Yum!

When: April 3, First Clue at 6 p.m. Don't be late
