The Igniting Team Performance event at the One Ocean Resort yesterday was “Outstanding”!! Your lead facilitator did an incredible job in getting that event completed in 2 hours. Our client was absolutely thrilled with the exercise and the results. The great debrief overview at the end and the client was very impressed. I watched and saw the team morph from ‘oh here we are another event again’ to totally immersed in the exercises and the results. The client was providing feedback and commentary on what they were learning, etc. I was in the corporate world for over 33 years and never had a team-building event done as exceptional this one. Truly remarkable, I was very impressed. I can really sell this one easily now to our corporate clients. Thank you for all your help and please pass on my great appreciation of the exemplary execution of this event.
