The Bells, The Bells…
September 27th, 2009Just a quick one from me on an overcast Sunday morn. Went to a great dinner party last night and was hoping to have a nice lie in. Which I have. I even made it to when the bells started chiming. Clearly there is a wedding in the village today. My first thought was “why so early?”, or words to that effect. Once I saw it was gone 9:30, that thought slowly dissipated to be replaced by “why so loud?”. Well, that would be the fault of the overcast bit. The cloud cover made it a warmish night, so all the windows were wide open. My third and final related thought was “that’s really impressive teamwork – I should write a blog entry about that”. So here it is. A small team of people working together, getting the timing right in pulling lots of ropes turn that strange-looking effort into something very pleasant to the ear – once you’re properly awake that is. For me, that’s a great example of a whole being greater than the sum of its parts. That’s what our team building activities are all designed to help our client teams achieve. It’s nice to have a musical analogy.
