Why Drum Circles Work for Ahmedabad’s Retail Sector
1. Enhances Communication Across Teams Retail depends on seamless coordination between sales, inventory, marketing, and customer support. Drum circles train participants in active listening and rhythmic response — boosting verbal and non-verbal communication in the workplace.
