Changing Company Culture -- The TEDxSamsung Lunchtime Flashmob
TEDxSamsung is a bi-weekly TEDx internal corporate event in South Korea.
Organizer Inyhuk Song loves seeing the effect the event is having on Samsung employees and on company culture saying, “TED changed my life, and TED changed Samsung too. Nowdays, TEDxSamsung is changing Samsung's employees culture, from top-bottom hierarchical strict organization style to bottom-up internal motivation leading style.”In December, Song and his team hatched a plan to flashmob the R & D Center building during lunch, dancing to Michael Jackson’s “Beat It”:
The result was playful and unexpected -- at one point, a man in a suit on the phone puts his phone away and happily jumps into the fray.
Song says, “People believe company is just for working place, but now, our employees sometimes tell me, it has changed. This place may have some fantastic possibilities, we feel we can anything together. In point of company culture, it is big progress!”To learn more about TEDxSamsung, visit their profile on the TEDx website here.
