Chris speaks at G+K Services, an $800million branded apparel services company, on Sled Dog
Wisdom: The art of teamwork.
G+K’s VP of HR said “Chris's talk was creative, engaging,
and highly relevant to the goals of improved communication,
teamwork, and productivity…Chris created a common language
for applying insights from sled dogging to the hard, but
rewarding work, of building a team (in our case, a team of
IT professionals). A great way to start 2005.” |
