I was in a meeting about a takeover a few years ago as the staff rep. The start of the meeting involved discussing what type of biscuit the company would be. I made my feelings very plain by saying it would be an own brand rich tea, because that was all we would be able to afford once we’d wasted countless £0000 on staff consultations and rebranding to ultimately do whatever it was they were going to do in the first place. 6 months of the same meeting over and over to end up right where we started, but with a blue logo instead of a red one. Oh and 34% of the staff gone.

We have these in one of our huddles, but they've now totally taken over. So it will just be a full 25m of the team picking super powers.
Weirdly, fully committing and devoting a full slot works much better than having them sprinkled in or having to come up with 'energising news'. We're split across multiple countries/locations and often don't work together so it's turned out to be a good way to bond and I'm now spending less time before coming up with a response that profiles me.
Generally though I agree.
