Word Origin & History
corporate
late 14th century., meaning “united in one body,” from L. corporatus, pp. of corporare “form into a body,” from corpus (gen. corporis) “body”.
Okay… that’s where the word “corporate” came from and that’s what the word means. But, that is often not how “corporate” functions feel. As any corporate leader knows, unity is frustratingly elusive. So how do you as a meeting planner respond to this truth? What is the one thing guaranteed to bring down the walls between people and build unity in your next corporate gathering? The answer is clean comedy that builds your people up while tearing down the walls that separate them from one another.
Here’s an example. Comedian Bob Stromberg leads a group in an intrinsically corporate activity… group whistling. (Yeah, when was the last time your company did that?) The result is exactly what you’re looking for.
