Six times a year, Groupon holds a quarterly all-company meeting to explain new company policies and to check each employee for head lice. Here’s the agenda for our upcoming meeting:
- Firework display shown on auditorium projector screen
- 20 minutes of silence to honor all employees’ living fathers
- Introduce the Board of Directors
- Play name games with audience to help them remember the Board of Directors
- Inspire Groupon employees by telling them that everyone should feel like a Board Member. To emphasize the point, ask the entire audience to join the Board on stage for the remainder of the meeting.
- Acknowledge employees who grew the most since last meeting
- Show a graph depicting the number of watermelons Groupon could buy with last quarter’s total revenue
- Intermission
- Reassemble, this time with the Board sitting in the audience and the employees on stage. This teaches the employees that nothing in life is guaranteed.
- Initial firework display shown in reverse

Would like to c more in the Chicago area. The city itself and close surrounding suburbs not sooo many miles out… I loved groupon and now hate to read it because it seems like a waste of time
