March Madness

It’s that time of year again – the time when NCAA brackets are filled out and people flock to college basketball.  We do a pool every year at Pile and Company.  We’re a small company with a small group of sport fans.  Without fail, the winner of the pool each year is the person with the least amount of interest in sports.  What are the odds?  

I wonder why we even bother to run a pool, but it does serve a purpose in a small company.  It fosters competition and team building within the company.  People who generally have no interest in the games are paying attention.  The games are on in our common area and groups get together to watch the games.  So while basketball may not be of interest to all, the tournament brings the company together.  And in my opinion, that’s a good thing.

What do you do for team-building at your company or agency?
