Songs for Learning?

Whimsy

At a recent Bank of America employee event, two employees sang a song to motivate employees to see the benefits in the Bank of America and MBNA merger.

You decide if this is a good learning opportunity. Click to see the video.

Warning: May cause laughter. Don’t forget to read the comments.

Actually, I’m guessing that the song worked well for people within the meeting, but damn does it fall apart when the rest of us get to peek through the windows. Suggests to me that motivational attempts like these in our e-learning programs and our business meetings must be lock-boxed to prevent a wider distribution. Even better, when we design we need to assume that our efforts might get posted on YouTube.
