I'm a Doctor. I Know What Actually Brings a Team Together. This Was It.
Doctors have a problem - we barely know each other! Finding the time and space to build relationships with the people we otherwise only meet at the beginnings or ends of our shifts. A quick handoff of a list of sick patients doesn’t leave much space for the type of conversation that leads to real relationship building. When I suggested a food tour as a team-building outing, my boss was initially skeptical. After my wife Pam talked to him about it he agreed to give it a try. But I wondered, would they like it? I knew the tour was good; as the co-founder I knew Pam had poured every ounce of her efforts into making this an experience that could be broadly enjoyed. But would my team, a diverse group with many backgrounds and tastes, enjoy it?
They loved it.
