SELF-INTEREST
Greetings, Thanks! I'm NAME, I used to be in banking, until the S&L crisis.
in fact my first job was as a teller; I moved up the normal channels, our branch became so successful I was promoted into regional management. We did so well our bank was taken over, and I was downsized, along with all the rest of middle management, and so I started this consulting firm.

Why do you go to work every day? Well, to make money! Why does the bank open its doors every day? To make money. Anyone here want to make more money? Who wants to make more? I'm here to tell you today how you can do that, and also have a better time at work.
Who am I? I'm a consultant for high-powered training firm.

Does that sound like a win?

These trainings are useful in some situations but in most corporate cultures these days, workers have already seen all that.
The fact is team identification comes down to shared risk and trust in many ways (Al-Swidi and Mahmood, 2011, p. 30), so firms do the falling exercise; speed dating and all that but after they've tried those one-size-fits-all team building exercises, they call us [pointing at self]. Why? Those exercises are fun but only partially effective. Again, why? After too many of these...
