It’s even evident in how we name our businesses: a company is, among other things, a company of people working together. Enterprise employees work in small teams, that form larger departments, that are comprised of one or more branches, and so on.

I took it out of storage to show my kids. What struck me were the instruction booklets that came with the games. They seems so archaic especially when I look at how my son learns the games.
