Home About Team Samantha Goldstein

In this series of articles, we take five minutes to chat with a member of the TeamBonding team so you can get an idea of what sort of people we are.

In this installment, we talked to Samantha, our Director of Sales about her biggest pet peeve, favorite place in the world, favorite food, and more!

How long have you been with TeamBonding?

Basically forever!

What is your most memorable TeamBonding experience?

Before I came to TeamBonding, we did a culinary team building program at my last company – it was the night after the 2016 election and we were worried that people wouldn’t be excited enough about the event. We were so wrong – it was a blast and the 3-course meal our team made was the talk of the town for a while!

What do you do with your free time?

Escape Rooms – I’m obsessed! It’s my goal to do one in all 50 states.

What’s your biggest pet peeve?

Excuses.

What is your favorite place in the world to be?

I can’t believe I’m going to say Florida! But, if you haven’t been to St. Augustine, FL (the oldest continuously inhabited city in the US), I highly recommend it.

What is your favorite food? (If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be?)

Prime Rib!

The most important thing in life is:

My family and friends! And my 6-month-old French Bulldog Puppy, Tilly.

Why Team Building Doesn’t Work

As a leader in your organization, you’re likely always looking for innovative ways to strengthen employee relationships.

It may lead them to really question “does team building work”?
