Review of Outside the Box

This theme has been tackled many times, but this film does the hatchet job on these ridiculous management training events rather well. We all know the sort of thing, and I've had to endure them myself. I still hold a grudge against the idiots who think that being able to climb a rope ladder or fire a paintball gun means you are a good manager. If the busted banks had spent more time checking figures instead of sending their managers on corporate training events like these, then we might all be a bit richer (what am I saying...the bankers are rich anyway, despite their catastrophic failures). Interesting that although the film is in German, all the clichés about management are in English. Altogether an entertaining farce with a message few, other than the frauds who run these sorts of events, would disagree with.
