It is also important to indicate an understanding that the perspective is one's own and not necessarily that of the others.

Management literature is rife with advice on how to engage teams of workers in their tasks, how to get teams to cooperate, and how to build cultural identity as a company. Historically, humans have used group rhythmic tasks to solidify affiliation in religious, cultural, and military settings (Wiltermuth & Heath, 2009). Traditional team-building approaches have focused largely on the content or style rather
