CORE DEFINITION

When a group gathers and engages in unified rituals (such as concerts, religious gatherings, or parades), individuals experience an electric excitement and a sense of self-dissolution. This energy fuses isolated individuals into a community.

SCAFFOLDING EFFECT

The physical moment of team spirit. Cohesion is not achieved through reasoning but through the bodily sensory experience of "effervescence." Managers must deliberately create such "high-energy moments" (team building, celebration banquets) to weld the team together with the electric current of collective emotion.
