[ Camaraderie ]

There’s a lovely buzz in the air these days reflecting this particular moment in time that we are re-gathering in.

I’m trying to identify what motivates a team, group, or gathering of people who choose to (and pay to) spend time with each other.  (Through to the early hours of the morning no less, ahem, colleagues out there you know who you are).

I’ll go with camaraderie.  The definition is “mutual trust and friendship among people who spend a lot of time together.”  The synonyms are inspiring: companionship, togetherness, conviviality. I wonder if we could work in permanent conference mode.
