March Madness!

We haven't posted on the Monitoring Well in a few weeks.  This has to be because of the dreaded time suck of the NCAA tournament.  Every year new studies come out showing that office productivity and server speed drops during the first week of the tournament as everyone is checking their brackets and their favorite teams' scores.  In an interesting article, Michael Crom of the Dale Carnegie Institute suggests that companies embrace the inevitable and use March Madness to boost employee engagement in the office, through events like viewing parties and encouraging bracket pools.  As a die hard sports fan I'm all for this approach.


OK, enough blogging for me for a bit.  I need to get back to daydreaming about IU knocking off Kentucky again.  Go Hoosiers!
