Different organizations and teams have different rituals that help in building team-spirit. There are many strange and interesting rituals but this one from Saint Gobain caught our attention!

A marketing manager from the French Saint Gobain Group shared a rather extraordinary example with us:

“With my team, before presenting to the Board our marketing plans, we’re always very nervous. So we’ve invented a funny ritual [that] works as an incantation to avoid bad luck: we touch each other’s asses and all together we scream ‘Shit!’ I believe this works well, because then we all smile and feel much more relaxed!”

What is the most interesting workplace ritual you have seen?
