That's sort of the whole point of teambuilding exercises. If everyone was a long wolf, businesses would not function and projects would never get finished. You need to work in a team to get things done, you don't need to like it (I don't either), but you have to do it to be successful. Sometimes a teambuilding exercise can help break social barriers and get everyone on the same page.
I would go to the pub with Duncan with a few other smart colleagues, have few beers and a laugh. Then bugger off home while the rest is pretending to have fun with the managers watching
Thought this was dumb and pre-pandemic, attended a work team building drum circle. The team really bonded - United in our new found hate for whoever organised the event. Negative cohesion really works and these guys are really onto something.
Why do these entrepreneurs ask "is there any room for negotiation?" that is the single worst question you can ask if you are trying to claw back some equity. GIVE THEM A COUNTER OFFER. These two could have probably knocked them down to 30-33.3% by saying they wanted to be 1/3 partners with the dragons.
30% was what I imagined they could have dropped equity to as well. Theo gave away his hand by saying that he wanted to "make his money back" and could have led to a negotiated buyback to at least 30%. They probably should have counter-offered with a buyback option to 20% and then negotiated up from there to 30%.
I agree with him. The activity wasn't the problem it's the sweaty and nearly homeless looking people who haven't Corporately built anything in their life.
Was anyone else dreading the arkward clap at the end of the two entrepreneurs performance. The dragons having a go put a smile on my face though, especially Peter, looked like her was enjoying it

Lul Strong teams are key for the success of any business, and businesses naturally create silos.

@Anthony Clown his suggestion was to get drunk. Team building is about doing a specific thing together like drumming, where you learn new things about other people, not get s drunk that you forget yourself enough to open up.
I’m with Duncan especially after Theo’s questioning. It puts me in mind of the worst parts of corporate away days. Fine as an option if you are desperate to book something “different” but liable to annoy people who find compulsory fun tedious.
I found Duncan's reaction strangely, aggressive and petulant. Maybe a drum fell on him when he was a toddler, so he's hated the sight and sound of drums ever since ! ( :
You can’t expect to go on TV infront of multi millionaires and present a pitch for an activity which children do in nursery playgroups. Duncan is an honest and fair man who takes good ideas seriously, business is business, snowflakes are snowflakes.
Maybe Duncan just doesn't like hippie guys that ask for corporate prices for hippie things. And honestly, drums sound horrible unless accompanied by other instruments in a band.
I don’t even think Theo wanted to invest. Only reason he did is because of Peter lmao. Ain’t nobody denying Peters partnership. Especially after being called out personally
I did a drumming workshop during my university dance degree to get my class working as a team and unite us so we could perform on stage in synchronicity. You have to really tuned into your teammates, pick up their queues and be aware of others. We had a lot of fun doing it, it really raised the group's moral and bought a really positive vibe to the rest of the day. I think this idea is great. However, I don't they explained the benefits and how the workshop would work very well. I'm not sure if they're the right business people to make this into a success. They should hire a business partner to help them focus their ideas and action them out.
You're a dancer though, an ensemble performer. These are stuffy old corporate busybodies that have no use for harmony in the way an actor or a dancer might. It's really sad but the Dragon's are very one track minded with very little ability to learn about anything outside their businesses.
@@dizzylilthing It's not just corporates in suits that are likely to turn up their noses at a drumming workshop.

I can see why Peter and Theo invested.. it’s one thing hiring a good prospect and it’s other thing to make em gel with other group of good workers. Every MNC has team building events for better returns on services from their employees
Duncan is correct here. Corporate team building is a whole lot more about understanding the psychology of how the team either gels or doesn't gel, and a whole lot less about the activity being used to get to that underlying psycholoy. These guys are just drum strummers (cheerleaders).
Correct. I think Duncan probably wrote 'bollocks' and 'total bollocks' in his little notebook. And I really can't see the drumming workshop working with teams of software specialists, engineers or scientists. Too many people with Asperger's syndrome or INTJ/INTP personality types. Awkwardness dial turned up to 10.
Just for anyone curious, in the north of the UK we call dinner "tea". It can get confusing sometimes because we also call tea tea, and we drink a lot of tea.
This shows me what style boss Duncan would be. Honestly if he can't see the value in this, I have to wonder how he gets anyone to work for him. They are also really cheap if they are doing this for a hundred people at £1,000 there really isn't many team building get together for only £10 a head! Set up anywhere any time and turn over £1k a day with very little overheads. £50k is well worth a punt. Duncan missed a trick here, but then he just didn't get it.

@@sbaxter4207 Not quite, but there was an episode where someone negotiated Tej down to the equity they originally offered then weirdly rejected him. A bit of a 'you're out' moment.
I forgot that Peter and Theo have their own entertainment business, but that was a while back. Lol. Duncan has his own music business. Our company makes us do some stuff for team building but never drumming yet. I would suck anyway... for that reason, I'M OUT! 😁😁😁
I spent 25 years in entertainment and used to run many team building events for big companies as well as small ones. Mine were all circus based and I don't remember anyone not joining in. Duncan is just a bit boring and rude.
@G B for those that were a bit..... shall we say shy... We used to use fire, pyrotechnics, a very silly and playful dog and other 'tricks' and it always worked, however miserable they may have been, in the end they wouldn't want to stop 😁
It’s possible that the people who really didn’t want to go there would have found a reason not to be able to go. You know things like a Dr’s appointment, a Dentist.... murdering a relative so that they had a funeral to go to... befriending the person who organises the “team building” away days so they know when to book annual leave. That said your thing sounds better than the guys in this pitch wouldn’t be my cup of tea for a corporate attendance thing, but would be the sort of thing I’d be up for doing with friends though the dog would give me paws for thought (couldn’t resist). Some people respond really well to those kind of activities others don’t. Unfortunately, it can be an easy crutch for bad managers to use to say they are good managers. A good manager should tailor their approach to suit the temperament of their subordinate, rather than 1 solution fits all it.
@@kierangdelaney9256 now that is a good reply. I think because I never went in all gung ho and look at me and how good I am, I always looked at it like teaching adults to not be embarrassed about being 10 again and how play is actually a right laugh. Even taught Prince Charles to diabolo when I was his guest performer for his 50th at Buckingham Palace, his dad was a miserable git, though I did make him laugh and the queen said I was the first to unicycle through the staterooms 😅 Oh those were the days.....😁.
I abhore teambuilding events and headbands, therefor i make the same face as Duncan 🤣 We had a mandatory didgeridoo workshop, whilst the buffet behind us was getting cold. So endless spitting into a plastic tube that sounded like pffffffff for TWO HOURS, because the new manager invited his manager and wanted to suck up kept it going....... cold chinese food and one more evening gone.
I hate this type of team building. What a load of crap!!! I remember my son on one of these time wasting events and one of the tasks was for them to team up clucking like hens and simulate laying eggs. It was humiliating, on team building. They'd be better doing cross country running together.Can't stand over indulged musos! This is ridiculous. Duncan's eyes says it all! He's so "no nonsense" 👍

I forgot that Peter and Theo have their own entertainment business, but that was a while back. Lol. Duncan has his own music business. Our company makes us do some stuff for team building but never drumming yet. I would suck anyway... for that reason, I'M OUT! 😁😁😁
I agree with Duncan. These clowns are a bunch of chancers.
I spent 25 years in entertainment and used to run many team building events for big companies as well as small ones. Mine were all circus based and I don't remember anyone not joining in.
Duncan is just a bit boring and rude.
@G B for those that were a bit..... shall we say shy... We used to use fire, pyrotechnics, a very silly and playful dog and other 'tricks' and it always worked, however miserable they may have been, in the end they wouldn't want to stop 😁
@Deleted have no idea how to message you, had a look on ya profile but cant see a message link
It’s possible that the people who really didn’t want to go there would have found a reason not to be able to go. You know things like a Dr’s appointment, a Dentist.... murdering a relative so that they had a funeral to go to... befriending the person who organises the “team building” away days so they know when to book annual leave.
That said your thing sounds better than the guys in this pitch wouldn’t be my cup of tea for a corporate attendance thing, but would be the sort of thing I’d be up for doing with friends though the dog would give me paws for thought (couldn’t resist). Some people respond really well to those kind of activities others don’t. Unfortunately, it can be an easy crutch for bad managers to use to say they are good managers. A good manager should tailor their approach to suit the temperament of their subordinate, rather than 1 solution fits all it.
@@kierangdelaney9256 now that is a good reply.
I think because I never went in all gung ho and look at me and how good I am, I always looked at it like teaching adults to not be embarrassed about being 10 again and how play is actually a right laugh.
Even taught Prince Charles to diabolo when I was his guest performer for his 50th at Buckingham Palace, his dad was a miserable git, though I did make him laugh and the queen said I was the first to unicycle through the staterooms 😅
Oh those were the days.....😁.
I abhore teambuilding events and headbands, therefor i make the same face as Duncan 🤣
We had a mandatory didgeridoo workshop, whilst the buffet behind us was getting cold. So endless spitting into a plastic tube that sounded like pffffffff for TWO HOURS, because the new manager invited his manager and wanted to suck up kept it going....... cold chinese food and one more evening gone.
I hope you all wore masks while you were blowing and had your Covid vaccines up to date !! 😷🤣
I hate this type of team building. What a load of crap!!! I remember my son on one of these time wasting events and one of the tasks was for them to team up clucking like hens and simulate laying eggs. It was humiliating, on team building. They'd be better doing cross country running together.Can't stand over indulged musos! This is ridiculous. Duncan's eyes says it all! He's so "no nonsense" 👍
Agreed. Duncan smelled their bullshit before ithey even entered the building.
Though I recognised the short one as Robbie Williams drummer from the Knebworth concert but he was successful couldn’t be him
I’m beginning to love the new timing 🤩
