One good way for colleagues at any company to get to know each other better, to help build rapport and morale, is to give a fun survey that asks about their interests outside of work. We ran the following survey here at MATC Group and it was very interesting to learn a little more about each other. Where do you fit on the “favorites” profile we ran for MATC Group employees? Here are a few results from our survey; see if anyone’s preferences closely align with yours. Email MATC Group with your own responses to the 10 questions – we’ll publish a sampling of site visitor responses.
