When a group of people works together for a long time, their actions can become repetitive, and it can be difficult to reignite a creative spark. Bringing back new ideas, processes, best practices, and strategies from the INFORMS Analytics Conference could help invigorate the office dynamic more than one would think. When multiple members of your team attend together, the brainstorming and idea exchange can begin before they even leave the conference!<\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text --><!-- module text -->\n<div  class=\"module module-text tb_0gkq718   \" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div  class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n        <h3>Team Rate<\/h3>\n<p>$1,250\/team member.
