What Clients Say About A Minute 2 Win It!

The group absolutely loved all of the activities. Very engaging and fun! The feedback was extremely positive. This was the perfect way to end the night after all day meeting sessions. Our facilitator did an outstanding job!
Eaton logoKristieEaton
Everyone had a great time at the Minute to Win It for Charity program. The best team building aspect was the word relationship game. Everyone is still talking about it and that they learned a lot about their teammates. Half of my group originally said they couldn’t stay for the whole event and yet they all did, so a good time was had by all. Most of the group had never been involved in contributing to a charity and said that was the best part. Your lead facilitator and her staff were amazing. From beginning to end, the high energy and enthusiasm they brought was definitely contagious to my group. I would love to work with them again in the future. Elise – Bio-Rad Laboratories

Our group really enjoyed A Minute 2 Win It! It was very organized event and we all had fun! The best part of the event was the kick off and how it got everyone engaged. We can’t wait until our next team building program with BCE next year!
Securitas Security Services USA logoHollySecuritas Security Services USA
The "friendly" competition between teams was the best part of the night – the teams had to be #1. Each game was fun, but the Oreo cookie challenge gave us all the most laughs. Your lead facilitator did an awesome job – the way he interacted with the team and even dealt with a few "smart asses" was wonderful. He kept things moving at a great pace and from start to finish it was wonderful. I have only received positive feedback from the A Minute 2 Win It event last night and today everyone is telling me how much fun they had.
Bloom Energy logoLauraBloom Energy
Your lead facilitator was fantastic and his opening icebreaker called Entourage was really fun. The interaction between colleagues during our Minute 2 Win for Charity program was a great team builder. Our group overall enjoyed the activities a lot. It was one of their favorite sessions of our entire meeting.
ACTEGA North America, Inc. logoMaryACTEGA North America, Inc.
The initial icebreaker for our A Minute 2 Win It program was really fun and set the temperature for the entire event. Your lead facilitator had the perfect personality – he handled our group very well. The program was extremely organized and a great team building activity because it really made us work together. Everyone enjoyed the activities.

Waste Management Inc. of Florida logoSteveWaste Management Inc. of Florida
Your facilitator delivered an extremely organized Minute 2 Win It event for our group. Learning about peoples differences and their strengths was a great team builder. The activity I thought was the most fun was the pencil flip. As a whole, I think our group really enjoyed their program.
The Plexus Groupe logoCherylThe Plexus Groupe
It was great that everybody was really able to work together to figure out their own strategies. The Entourage icebreaker really got everybody going! It was definitely out of the box, but I think that’s what people liked about the activities the most. A Minute 2 Win It was something completely new for my team, who usually strays away from the ’typical’ team games, but it was well worth it in the end!
Oribe Hair Care logoKealaOribe Hair Care
Everyone had a blast and they were still talking about how much fun they had the next day at work. It was a great team building experience and made us want to do it again. We loved the Oreo Cookie challenge. We like to do another team building program in nine months.

The best aspect of the program was the result of the event bringing closer relationships amongst our group! The rock paper scissors was fun!! Nothing but raves! Our facilitator was fun and had the ability to herd the cats!
Emser Tile logoWendyEmser Tile
We had so much fun at our Minute 2 Win It for Charity!!! Our event also involved our spouses/significant others. The spouse/significant other could not be on the same team. This provided great interaction before heading off for dinner afterwards!! Our group really enjoyed the activities and presenting the bikes to the children.
Carolina CAT logoSuzanneCarolina CAT
Playing the games as a team and having to figure out the best way to play the game collectively. The interaction with the facilitator and team members was very fun. The group really enjoyed everything and had a great time. Our facilitator was very personable and funny. He became a part of the team quite quickly.

It was a great ice breaker for the first afternoon of our activity. Got everyone laughing and comfortable together. Everyone enjoyed it. Our facilitator was really fun and got everyone engaged right away.
US Bank logoErinUS Bank
Members of this team have never been face to face before so it was great to have the opportunity to work together like this. The event was lightheartedness and fun. After three days of meetings, etc. this was a chance for fun. The facilitator kept the session moving forward and never lost control of the room. It was just a great time. A chance to let off steam and build relationships.

HCC Service Company logoBridgetHCC Service Company
Our A Minute 2 Win It team building Orlando program was very organized. We are an international company, so the best team building aspect of the program was getting to know each other for the first time. Our group enjoyed all the activities especially ping-pong and backflip. Thank you so much.

ICV Partners logoMarilynICV Partners
Every single person I spoke with had a blast with A Minute to Win It! I love that you come to us and bring all of the props needed so we don’t have to think about that, and everything was extremely organized. We got a great team building experience with the card game where it was super important to follow directions, and building a structure out of marshmallows and noodles was so much fun. Our facilitator was excellent; his personality mixed with our team seamlessly. He was a treat and the whole company had a great time because of him. They were amazed at how fast the time went during the program. One person said that we MUST do this again!
SignalWire logoSharonSignalWire
A Minute 2 Win It was even better than what I imagined after learning about your company and reading about it online. What an awesome experience from start (initial contact with the company) to finish. Our group really enjoyed it! There was laughter throughout the entire event from the "getting to know you" bits at the beginning to the cookie contest at the end! The networking "games", grouping people by birth Our lead facilitator Eric was funny and personable, he kept things moving and kept us all engaged.
Taylor & Francis logoNatachaTaylor & Francis
I hope you had a nice weekend. I connected with Adam and Justin, who said their two teambuilding events, A Minute 2 Win It! and Momentum, were outstanding! My group had a great time and enjoyed their Competition to Collaboration event, as well as the wrap-up discussion at the end. We’re glad we chose to work with you and your company, and hopefully, we can partner again in the future.
West Monroe logoJosetteWest Monroe
Thank you so much for such a great event! Our group was engaged and excited about participating in A Minute 2 Win It!, which is not easy to do with a group of men. Everyone had a blast and several people came up to me afterwards expressing their enthusiasm with the event. Your lead facilitator had an awesome sense of humor and was able to play off the various personalities in the group and get everyone fired up! I definitely recommend this program to anyone looking for a team-building event that allows people to just relax and break their walls down for a bit. The games were simply enough for all age groups and allowed for everyone to participate in a fun game that accomplished all of our goals. Thank you so much for accommodating us on such short notice.
OMG, Inc. logoSulamitaOMG, Inc.
I have never seen my group so energetic. We have done many different team building activities in the past but "Light Speed" was by far the best. After the program, I heard many folks stating "I’m exhausted from laughing so hard!" and "We had so much fun"! I would recommend Light Speed to any group who is looking for energy level 10!
Genentech logoPamGenentech
Thank you for making our meeting kickoff such a great success. A Minute 2 Win It games brought our teams together and excited them throughout your program. Your team concept was an amazing way to introduce our players to one another.
The Knot logoLisaThe Knot
We contracted your company for A Minute To Win It team building activity for one of our clients. We weren’t familiar with anything like this. Naturally, I had lots of questions and was a bit anxious. Your salesperson was quite patient, taking me through the variety of activities and together we chose an activity that was perfect for our group. The payment process was easy and he was regularly in contact with me. I spoke with the facilitator a couple of times beforehand and he too was great in answering my questions and calming my nerves. Yesterday, he was professional, on time, flexible and the event more than exceeded my expectations. I appreciate your team and wanted you to know you have some great people working there.

Our experience with Best Corporate Events and our Minute 2 Win It! event was phenomenal. The event was well coordinated and full of just the energy that we were looking for. I personally enjoyed working with your lead facilitator and appreciated his flexibility. I can say that we have only heard great things from each and every team member who has provided feedback to our department. We would absolutely recommend your services to others.
SimpliVity Corp logoSamanthaSimpliVity Corp
Honestly, everyone seemed to LOVE the program and really enjoyed the afternoon. The activities did not make anyone feel uncomfortable and overall people were smiling the whole time. It truly was a great experience. Your lead facilitator and his staff did a great job getting people motivated and involved. Again, thank you so much for all your help in coordinating such a fun afternoon. We truly appreciate it.
Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals logoJenniferBayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals
The Chili Cook-Off and A Minute 2 Win It! events went very well and your lead facilitator was a pleasure to work with. We were also glad that she was able to do both events. We really liked how she put the teams together (20-30 minute prep) as it forced the people to mingle with people they didn’t know. We would definitely use Best Corporate Events again in the future. Thanks for all your help!

The Minute 2 Win It for Charity was a GREAT event – in fact one of our teammates labeled it "the best team building event they’ve ever participated in". You guys did a GREAT job (as evidenced by my lack of voice the next morning, which made day 2 of my emcee duties a bit more interesting – LOL).
FIS Global logoJeffFIS Global

They were engaging, funny, personable, and most importantly everyone in the room had a great time with them. Your lead facilitator was a pleasure to work with through the entire process, and I couldn’t be happier with how he led the group! A true professional that is gifted at what he does! We hope to work with you guys again soon.

AVAD LLC logoDonnaAVAD LLC
I got great feedback from our sales team on their Minute 2 Win It SmartHunt. We didn’t know how this would go over since we took away their free afternoon to do the team building event. Normally they can choose to golf or go to the spa so we were nervous about how this would turn out and the comments we would get. I’m happy to report that we had 100% positive feedback. It was very fun and the video at that end was fantastic. Thanks again!
Satellite Shelters, Inc logoLynneSatellite Shelters, Inc
Our Minute 2 Win It! for Charity program surpassed our expectations. The facilitators were fun and the icebreaker they picked was a fantastic way to get the group energized. We were working on a very compressed timeline when we reached out to Best Corporate Events and they were able to put on a great event for us in a matter of days.
Capital One Financial Corporation logoRachelCapital One Financial Corporation
The variety in the A Minute 2 Win It games and the quick pace caused everyone to have a great time. The entire group was very involved almost too much to the point where a couple of times the facilitators had to calm them down a little bit so they would hear the appropriate instructions. Your facilitators did a very good job in running the event and bringing the crowd back around.

United Way of Ventura County logoSusanUnited Way of Ventura County
Our day of fun and games was very well organized and your lead facilitator was able to maintain a good energy throughout the day. We did A Minute 2 Win it in the morning and Team Olympics in the afternoon. They were good team building activities, high-energy, and they allow for the entire group to go back to childhood and not worry about what others thought and have fun without thinking about work. A lot of FUN! The consensus of the group was that it was a very fun day. Someone even said this was the best retreat they had been to since they started in the unit. Thank you!
The World Bank Group logoAngelaThe World Bank Group
Our A Minute 2 Win It program was excellent; everyone is still talking about it. The card game at the beginning of the event was a great team builder and the tower activity was the really fun. Your lead facilitator was fabulous!

Our group really enjoyed the activities in A Minute 2 Win It! I liked the opener too. Your lead facilitator had our people find someone they didn’t know and answer silly questions. It was a fun way to break the ice! Your staff had great energy and were flexible when we had to change format at the last minute. Next year we want to do a SmartHunt.

FAQs about A Minute 2 Win It!

What is A Minute 2 Win It! team building?

A fast-paced competition where teams of 6 to 8 go head-to-head in tabletop challenges built from everyday office and household items, with 60 seconds on the clock for each game. Every challenge runs in three parts: a demonstration from the host, a practice round, then a timed round for points. Gold medals go to the overall champions.

How long does it run, and how big a group can play?

Plan on 1.5 to 2 hours for groups of 30 to 1,000 and up. Because every team plays its own table at the same time, the format scales without anyone waiting around. For groups over 50 we ask for a microphone and sound system so the host can run the rounds.

Can we pick the games, or add our own?

Yes. Favorites include Back Flip, tossing and catching a growing stack of pencils; Moving on Up, racing to stack and cycle colored cups; and Card Speed, sequencing a deck under pressure. We can add custom challenges or activity materials, themed music or props, and company-specific twists.

Does it work as a conference energizer or after dinner?

That is where it shines. It works as daytime entertainment, a conference energizer, or an after-dinner activity, indoors or outdoors, and it needs no special skills, so everyone from the intern to the CEO can play. Physicality is low.

Can we turn it into a charity event?

Yes. Adding a charitable conclusion is one of the standard ways to personalize the program, and our Minute 2 Win It! for Charity version has teams earn the items to build care packages for a local organization.

What do we need to provide?

About 25 square feet per person, and for outdoor events an indoor back-up space of comparable size. A screen or leaderboard display helps everyone follow the scores. We bring the host, support staff, and all props and materials for the challenges.
