Here is a post I have been wanting to blog for a while now.

Working in organizations should also be about having fun which in the mad rush to meet the ever pressing deadlines gets forgotten.

Here is how Cheskin, a consulting and research firm tries to combine meetings and have fun. They try a day of meetings with a day of skiing. Read the entire post in Christopher Ireland?s own words. (BTW, whose perspectives I enjoy reading)

I particularly like the title, ?This day owes us nothing? and on why it should be done; ?Yes, we could have added about $500 to our bottom line if we didn’t do this. And yes, it’s hard to find a way to be fair and inclusive with this type of activity. But neither of these costs compare to the benefits of a day when work and play combine effortlessly.?
