“In retrospect, my colleagues and I have the following things to say:

–    The Team had a good fun over the entire programme and came back to the office re-energized and more engaged
–    Half-day programme for 11 people was enough to achieve our goal to provide a venue to promote bonding within the Team; full-day would have been too taxing and tiring
–    Personally I find the introductory/warm-up activities a little dry and something to be improved on
–    Dean and his Team were very good hosts, all flexible and responsive to our needs (e.g. time adjustment, break, etc.)
–    Overall, we had an enjoyable time and we appreciate the help provided

Thanks and until next time!”

“We were well taken care of in terms of our well being like providing us with sunblock, insect repellent! There was also adequate supply of food and bottled water. The only drawback was the breakfast buffet where there wasn’t sufficient time to eat as the queue was only on one side of the breakfast table so lots of time wasted queuing for food drinks! The flow was much better at lunch! Overall a very pleasant and positive experience! Thank you very much! Job well done!”
