What I love about this industry is how we are able to create these “connections”. These memories that people take with them. And with that, my highlights are about the connections I’ve made.
We had a great time at our Build-a-Wheelchair event! Your lead facilitator kept the group engaged and their energy levels high. The highlight of the event was hearing from the representative of the Disabled American Veterans organization. It was so impactful to hear directly from the organization that would benefit from our wheelchairs. Thanks!
OMG – the event was fabulous – don’t be surprised if one of our others Markets contact you,. Everyone loved the event. The gentlemen from the Disabled American Veterans organization were very gracious and appreciated our efforts. Sorry for being panic stricken – but from the moment I spoke to our lead facilitator on the phone I felt everything was under control. He is a great host and got the crowd involved and pumped up from the start. I apologize for getting panicky. I am sure you will be hearing from us again in the near future. Thanks for all of your help and patience, you were wonderful.
The Build-a-Wagon program was an excellent opportunity to help the community while having fun with teammates we care about, and depend upon every day.” We spend so much time working indoors on difficult projects, it was nice to get outdoors, enjoy ourselves and make something to benefit young children.
We had a great experience with our Locate & Donate SmartHunt in Seattle. The event was executed as anticipated and your team was quick to assimilate last minute changes requested by our management team. Those changes enabled us to gather much needed content directly related to our event. The SmartHunts event delivered what was promised: character-building, emotional activities, which left a lasting impression upon our teams and the Seattle community. Thank you for your service and contribution to our event. It was a cost-effective event for which our employees fully enjoyed. We’ll be looking to see where SmartHunts fits into future events.
Our “Team Olympics” event was fun and well organized. The physical activities were a real team builder and the group song we had to write and perform was the most fun. Your lead facilitator did a wonderful job and our entire group had a great time!
I just wanted to say ‘thank you’ for the amazing experience you helped us create for our delegates that attended the 2018 North America Bloc Convention last week. We heard nothing but positive feedback about the Team Building event and your host! It seemed that everyone who participated was honored to be a part of this special experience to benefit others. Please know that the planning and preparation made for this event was key to its success. Your hard work and effort were deeply appreciated and it was a pleasure working with all of you.
Allowing our teams to interact together in a low-stress environment while working towards a common goal was a great team builder. The most fun was the competition aspect and having the competition elements revealed as the games went on versus all at the beginning. We all enjoyed our Competition to Collaboration program and your lead did an excellent job of facilitating.
We can’t thank you and your team enough for helping to create another very meaningful event for our community of support and the organizations benefiting from our programs. The Build-a-Guitar event was a hit! I saw smiles all around and could tell everyone was having such a fun time. I truly feel it is events like these that help us to drive further value and foster a strong sense of engagement. Your lead facilitator and team were awesome again and always so delightful to work with. Thank you all again for a great event!
For our team building activities Salt Lake City, we participated in “Team Olympics”. It was fun and well organized. The physical activities were a real team builder and the group song we had to write and perform was the most fun. Your lead facilitator did a wonderful job and our entire group had a great time!
Everyone 100% loved the Chocolate Architect event! Ben’s knowledge of Star Wars really helped us stay within the theme. He was an amazing facilitator. The most fun was the presentation of our builds at the end of the program. Ben and Cassie from beginning to end were perfect in the way they engaged with the group, and Ben’s counseling session with me before the event really helped me not stress out. A special thank you to your facilitators for all their help.
Knowing how cliché team building can be there is always a concern that staff will glaze over and miss the intended message and overall goal that the team building activity brings. I have to share that not only were those concerns squelched within the first ten minutes of the networking event but absolutely disintegrated as the day progressed. I personally have been through many a team building exercise over the course of the last 20+ years and this was by far the best experience I have ever had and I walked away a better person (even though I did not participate in all the exercises).
Ben and his team were exceptional; I am in awe at how easily Ben was able to connect with the entire audience some of which are NOT at all open to this type of engagement. Ben’s ability to navigate all types of personalities and adapt himself to each and every instance positively is a joy to witness. Not one person in the room this past weekend was exempt from his infectious positivity and everyone at some point was engaged, smiling, and having fun. Below are full comments from the team that I wanted to share – they are already trickling in and I expect to get more of the same in the coming days:
‘It was wonderful to get acquainted with new colleagues and reconnect with others I have worked with for years. Having a relationship elevates our collaboration and teamwork. I thoroughly enjoyed the format of this meeting. I found the team building exercise advantageous to build personal connections and comradery. Constructing the platform provided insight into how others think, work and handle stress. The platform was also a physical reminder that every idea, action and accomplishment is all part of something much bigger’
‘Thanks so much for your planning, preparation and success for the team meeting. That was the best team building session I have ever attended and the family style dinner was perfect. I was really made to feel welcome and a perfect time for me to be coming on board’
In short, what an amazing day and I cannot thank you all enough for absolutely exceeding our expectations with this event!! We appreciate the dedication and effort that goes into pulling off successfully an event such as this and we were not disappointed.
Thank you all again for making this weekend a success for our team!!!

Keynote Speaker is an often-misunderstood term associated with simply a motivational speaker, breakout speaker, industry expert, etc. Most professional speakers are not actual trained Keynote Speakers, who are specialists, therefore in much lower supply, and in higher demand.
Keynote Speakers are experienced, professional communicators who engage an audience, capturing the essence of a client’s meeting. They are able to highlight it to their audience while simultaneously delivering their own key concepts and proprietary content in an entertaining and impactful way. Most companies understand that this specialization is very much worth the time (around an hour) and the investment.
In order to capture the perfect essence, a Keynote Speaker spends the necessary time researching a client’s industry, their issues, and their audience to craft a customized presentation into a unique and distinctive moment specifically for the client’s event.
As a top Keynote Speaker, Tom Leu strategically uses compelling storytelling, humor, powerful visuals, audio and video clips, and audience participation elements to weave an impactful message into your event in a fun and memorable way. Tom can also pair his Keynote with Best Corporate Events programming, laying a foundation and setting a tone that best prepares participants for maximum engagement in the forthcoming team events that day.
Our Build-a-Wheelchair event was a huge success! Your lead facilitator was excellent and everyone had a GREAT time! It was so nice to be able to get together & have some fun while benefitting a good cause at the same time. It was actually our first teambuilding event and I didn’t know what to expect but after all the positive comments I received about it, I’m sure there will be many more in our future and I would certainly use Best Corporate Events again! Thanks so much!
