How it works

Your host, anthropologist Natalia Reagan, will welcome you to the event and have each team member introduce themselves and share a fact or two about themselves. Next, you can sit back and relax as Natalia gives you a crash course about how animals and humans benefit far more from cooperative thinking than competitive. And how cooperation plus collaboration leads to deeper and more compelling work. After the lesson, the Natalia will divide you into small groups where you will do a team building exercise that relies heavily on cooperation. They’ll also be hilarious and fun!
