Eliminate – New York Times

Last week, my colleague, my colleague, my son recently said that he was 17 years old, he was in the first concert, who was in Brooklyn Paramount. It was too excited to introduce him to the magic of live music he discovered in 15 when he went to a rock show. How cool, I imagine your son, “What was the first group you experienced?” The bargaining, basist and undisputed hip bands went to get a response to the pixies and her mother to see her mother to see the rock tab. This was engaged in everyone in the meeting that revealed the first group in the concert.

Perhaps more than any other personal trivia, I see it interesting. You learn these Teenagers in music. If parents took them, you learn something about their childhood. (“Oh, he had a 6-year-old parents!”) The first concerts of my colleagues were impressive: Duran stand, “Monster” RAM. Mine English Rock Band Squeeze, 15 years old, in the third place, was Madison Square Garden.

People like to inform you about their first concerts. This is an invitation to find a good applied personal story to discover something unique about themselves, a jeweler box of a question. As you feel comfortable or “see, I’ve always been cool” or “Look at the god, see I’m a dork.” This is the perfect example of the most compiled form of an activity that can be obtained: Buzbaker.

I, in the last few days, I had a completely convincing, but convincing study of my friends about the icebakers. All hate a person. I’m getting it. Working on any team building on the face should be treated with suspicion. Ice men are designed to loosen people. How long can it be surprised in an empty, clever way, does it suit your workplace? We are going around the table, who expressed the grains of our favorite breakfast, but I am not sure I want to discover something more intimate to the whole marketing department.

However, as unpleasant as they can be in the context of work (a fun truth about yourself “), I will defend well as a delicious shortcut for an icy intimacy. I started a weekly person’s meeting in a past work, I started every meeting with a buyer. The good part of my team was normal remotely, remote work was normal and looked like we went to be comfortable with each other without some kind of corn. I can cancel myself, but after the team members need to know each other, a way to recall the approach, an interesting, dynamic person will be in the matrix of an interesting, dynamic person, even in the matrix of the workplace.

Looking at the ice binding from my weekly meetings, I saw it in my notes that I have no idea how the closest people will answer me and I was in a hurry to ask them. Some of these questions I have prepared myself, some came from the writer Rob Walkers’s newsletter “Do not pay attention” Some came from the team. “What is the first thing you buy with your own money?” “What were you doing in 23?” “What’s a great thing, but you hate?” “What are the most common things that people say when you tell them to tell them?”

These questions may feel awkward or artificial to break in the middle of a common conversation, but in your mind that you know your family can be fun to ask a bear or a group of friends. For those who understand the benefits of a small conversation, but slowly, slow, inefficient, you are, where are you anybody? – Icebreakers are only doing what they claim. You can wait for the ice to melt or just a little interesting, you can hit him with a question that reaches something a little interesting. They do not need to be called glaciers. Outside of a corporate frame, ice connectors are simply interesting. What do you want to know about the person you really talked about? Why don’t you just ask them?
