Why team building is critical (and really fun)

Do the words “team building” induce irritability and eye-rolls in your office? Are you imagining The Office’s Michael Scott screaming, “conference room – now!” while employees slowly trickle in for an over-the-top attempt at collectiveness? Obviously work is meant for, well, working, but an office needs to be more than that.
