When you think of team-building exercises, you probably think of trust falls and stuff like that. Here at ZocDoc, we think of something else - having fun. Like, actual fun. Fun that you want to have. That's why you might have seen our marketing team in the audience on the Colbert Report this last week! Bernd, one of our marketing gurus, gave us the details...
