companies need to make profit in order to exist however if there may be better ways in spending that money rather than team buildings is a very good question. I think it depends on what you have on your to do agenda and what the market requests .. or maybe more factors that I simply cannot think of for the moment

Yes and yes would be the answer! Spoiler alert: it’s the people that make the difference! Somehow, this feels a bit like the chicken and the egg dilemma. One can truly believe the key lays somewhere else however one would also need to prove that point. While the Internet is…
