You’re back. Great movie, right?  Did it inspire you to demo software solutions against your co-workers?  It didn’t inspire us that way either when we first watched it.  But more recently, we were brainstorming and thought,  “What if we set up an internal Kumite style competition where our team went head to head to see who could give the best solutions demonstration?”  That was the original idea.  Unlike a lot of ideas where we said, “Yeah, that would be pretty cool” and then did nothing, we did something different.  We kept talking about it.  A lot, in fact.  At sales meetings, marketing meetings, product meetings.  We quickly realized that this “off the wall” idea had the potential to positively impact every aspect of our organization.  Take a passionate and competitive group, add a hokie theme and tons of social pressure and what do you have?  Demo Kumite.
