Get Out of the Office

by Thomas Giacobbi, DDS, FAGD, Editorial Director, Dentaltown Magazine
Have you ever taken your entire office on a retreat? I have many times and it can be a powerful experience. The concept is fairly simple: choose a place where you can get away, preferably overnight, and spend a day doing a number of exercises geared toward team building and training. Everybody has a roommate and I would assign the rooms so different departments mix with each other. The entire event is completed within 24 hours and the short schedule avoids impinging on their weekend.
 
If you have a team building exercise you would like to share or just a word of feedback, please feel free to reach me by e-mail: tom@dentaltown.com. You are also invited to post comments online in the electronic version of this article and other articles in this issue at: www.towniecentral.com/Dentaltown/Magazine.aspx
