L. Halton - BT

and worthwhile event. I think everyone who attended thoroughly enjoyed
themselves, and quite a few people managed to tackle personal challenges
and complete them with the encouragement and support provided by the course
leaders."
H. Needham – BT
“We had an excellent day with Elite Training. The Creative Business Company, not only enabled us to challenge ourselves but also helped to build team spirit which will be carried
on into the workplace. A big thank-you to Mick and Liz."
J. King - Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy
“A good session with a nice mix of group and tutor lead activities. God
eye-opener as to the need to
be creative in looking at problems.”
R. Lucas - Chelmsford Borough Council
“I've just received the evaluations from your course and subsequently
spoken to their manager. He said your session has done wonders for the
delegates' confidence. We certainly plan to utilise your services in the
future.”
S. Fake - Colas Ltd
“I have had a chance to review the feedback forms which have all been very positive towards the activities you managed for us at our Managers Conference. As you know, it was the first time we had progressed such events and we were a little unsure of how it would be perceived but it worked very well with the ‘team’ atmosphere carrying on into the evening!
We will definitely being looking for further events next year.”
L. Hicks - Copas Farms
“From all at Copas Farms, we just wanted to thank you very much for Friday's Team Building afternoon. We have had
tremendous feedback and it was a joy to see even the most reluctant and reserved members of staff really joining in
and enjoying themselves.
Dealing with Elite Training, right from enquiry through to your actual presence on the day, has convinced us that we
chose the best company for the job and we particularly want to thank yourself and Liz for being friendly and efficient
to deal with. You quickly understood our brief and pitched the exercises at exactly the right level.”
A. Reeves - DHL
"We had good presenters, clear and good fun. I enjoyed good team sharing and involvement. Inhibitions departed when the radio advert was performed."
A. Maulis - Felixstowe Dock & Railway Company
“The way you used examples relating to everyday life and your previous
work experience helped
a great deal.”
C. Corstin - Gretton Homes
"Thank you again for the 'Dealing with Difficult People' Training you delivered at Gretton House. I know from feedback I have received, both on evaluation sheets
and verbally, that everyone found the course really helpful and very interesting. I am sure this will help when dealing with both staff and customers."
I. Oliver - ICI
"All parts of the seminar were very useful. It made you think about where you may be going wrong. I would like to do another seminar."
T. Giaffreda - IKEA
"Mick is a first class facilitator/trainer. I enjoyed and benefitted from the course today. I should like to use Elite again - very good."
A. Carter - Imperial London Hotels
"The tutor was well organised and made the seminar interesting -
a very good tutor."
K. Coupe - Ipswich Borough Council
“I have found Mr Miles extremely professional, insightful in his
approach and flexible in terms of tailoring course content to meet the
needs of both the organisation and the individual delegates.”
S. Robinson - Ipswich Town Football Club
“An enjoyable day with good instruction and constructive criticism. Now
I know what a report should consist of and how to get the point across
without waffling.”
C. de Boer - Johnson & Johnson
“There was a good mix of theory and activities. Very good to extrapolate to real life and business. The trainer was well prepared; 'sensed' the group and understood difficulties very well."
D. Guthrie - Laser-Scan
“I wanted to have the opportunity to put in writing my thanks to
both yourself and Liz for what was a superb weekend.
I have asked for feedback on the event from the team that went and everyone
without fail has given a glowing report. What is incredibly satisfying
to me is that not only did the group get a lot of enjoyment out of the
weekend (signified by statements such as 'I would gladly give up a weekend
to do it again') but also the concepts of teamwork and consensus seeking
have been taken on board and plans set to utilise such vital techniques."
I would have no hesitation in recommending Elite Training to any other
organisation that would like to indulge in a team building exercise and
no doubt you will be receiving another group from Laser-Scan in the not
too distant future."
S. Moore - Lovell Partnerships Ltd
“On behalf of the team a big thank you to both yourself and Liz for
making our conference such a success as it was."
J. Clark - Magnox Electric plc
“The course was very good all round, an eye opener to life.”
L. Kameche - Marriott Hotel
"Our team build is the subject of the day! We all talk about our days away and how the training with your team was a superb day! We all did well at the high ropes and your team encouraged us very well! The girls team won paintballing so this is kept low key in the office by Nikki, Amy, Annie, Karlie and myself bragg about it!
I heard lots of positive comments on the food. Yes it was fantastic! Thank you and to your team."
K. Dunphy - Medicines Control Agency
"Probably one of the best courses I have attended. Very well facilitated,
good control of group dynamics."
S. Seymour - The Ministry of Defence
“Since the team has got back to the workplace it has been noticeable how
more at ease members are with each other. When problems occur individuals
are more willing to support each other because of the ‘bonding’ that has
gone on at the team building exercise. This in turn helps the organisation
as a whole grow and become more effective. Thus the expenditure spent
on such an exercise like this is soon repaid in dividends.”
M. Vadera - NATO
“Great fun and helped us to work as a team and understand the impact of decisions.”
J. Tummcliff - Nuffield Healthcare
“Fun, friendly, made the day enjoyable which helped me to learn and understand.”
K. Madden - Norwich Union
“We have had some excellent feedback on the day as a whole and the Wine Bar Game in particular. People like the fact that because time was limited they had to assimilate quite a lot information quickly and delegate tasks to ensure that they were completed in the allotted time. It really did lead to people working as a team and having to trust team members judgements on the delegated tasks. People also liked the very quick feedback which gave the whole game an exciting immediacy. A frequent comment was 'Great fun, and the time just whizzed past.'
I have passed your details onto one of my colleagues in another department, and I am sure that he will be contacting you in the near future to discuss his requirements.”
M. Chambers - Openreach
Thanks to you and your team for a very enjoyable exercise on Tuesday's event. It was really good fun, but with a serious message which I think Chris put across very well at the end of the exercise.
"As promised, here's some verbatims from the feedback exercise I did following Anne's event that talk specifically about your session. People were asked what the highlight of the event was for them.
"The afternoon team event was informative and fun"
"The event in the afternoon was certainly enjoyable"
"The team game - good for networking and team work"
"Team bonding session in the afternoon"
P. Hunter - Palm Europe Ltd
The tutor was excellent, very approachable and kept eveyone's attention. It was most useful to learn the different techniques and will help me at work and at home.”
S. Webb - Rochford District Council
“Excellent - not enjoyed a course so much.”
C. Way – Sainsbury’s Supermarkets
“Many thanks for all the work that went in to planning and running the
day, having spoken to a number of people everyone really enjoyed it.
M. Hennessy - Security Industry Authority
"We very much enjoyed the day and a big thanks to you all for managing
the facilitation and support so well."
G. Holness - S.I.T.A.
“Some courses can become tedious, but this was interesting and educational.
Most rewarding and will be beneficial to me for my contract. Very interesting
facilitation with great communication skills.”
M. Smallbone – Smith & Nephew
“We have done these type of exercises before as team building – this was
better organised with excellent activities. Mick and Keith were great
fun and very supportive.”
C. MacLean - Stonebridge Electronics
"We had a very successful sales seminar which everyone enjoyed. We especially enjoyed the Pizza Game which
taught everyone about the importance of making the correct decision and how it affects the outcomes."
D. Barker - Suffolk County Council
"Excellent two days. Very stimulating and thought provoking."

"The course was excellently presented and interest was held for entire
course for all participants."
M. Standring - Suffolk Constabulary

us a chance to participate in discussions. One of the best one-day courses
I have attended for some time."
Thoranna Kristin - University of Westminster
"It is one thing reading about this, but this kind of work is what
really hits home and makes you fully understand the importance of the
issues. Thank you and I hope to do something similar with you guys at
another time!"
A. Reynolds - Waveney District Council
“Exactly what we wanted. Top Drawer!”
S. Ager - West Suffolk Hospital
"Thanks very much for the day, everyone really enjoyed it. The activities
were good in that everybody was able to use a particular skill and this
also highlighted skills that staff had, that were not previously known
to others. Staff felt that the activities were fun, that the small groups
were beneficial in that it did not put people under pressure. Your input
was excellent, relaxed and friendly. On my part, I was able to relax and
enjoy the day as much as others."
S. Daniels - Winkworth Estate Agents
"A massive thank you to you and all of your team,
very professional and friendly lot! "The whole company got so much out of the day, it
was great fun and a wonderful team building day.
I think even a few of us surprised ourselves with
theachievements – what a success! Thank you.”
C. Gurney - Wolsey UK
“The trainer was pleasant and made the course very interactive and rewarding. The delivery of the presentation was good.
The most useful part was developing a self awareness, emphasising the importance of listening and avoiding closed questions. I enjoyed the day very much.”
H. Rossiter - Yell Group
"Good, active and a variety. It showed skills not usually obvious in the workplace which highlighted new strengths
for individuals and the team.
The trainer was enthusiastic and friendly. A very useful day with fun team tasks which
we'll remember." |
