About this listen

In contemporary times, the concept of tribes has expanded beyond its traditional connotations. It's important to recognize that the term "tribe" can have different meanings based on the context.

In the digital age, the term "tribe" has taken on a new meaning as it is applied to online communities. An online tribe refers to a group of people connected through the internet based on shared interests, beliefs, hobbies, goals, or even geographical location. These virtual communities often exhibit characteristics similar to traditional tribes, such as a sense of identity, social cohesion, and shared values, but in an online context.

In the corporate world, the term "tribe" is often used to describe a specific organizational structure or group dynamic within a company. The concept draws parallels to traditional tribes in terms of cohesion, collaboration, and a shared sense of identity among members.

But, is it offensive, or inappropriate? Listen and decide.
