"leadershipWalls have come down, defensiveness has been replaced by candor and a genuine respect for each other. Problem-solving has turned into problem prevention. Most importantly, we are all having fun at work again, and guess what? — accomplishing our goals! Thanks to Adventureworks."
— Stan Smith, Viacom

"Our teambuilding event far surpassed all of my expectations. This session was exactly what we needed! We emerged as a true team, aware of strengths and weaknesses and how to deal with them more effectively. Thank you for helping us to unleash our potential!"
— Terri Pitcher, Tyco Adhesives

"Even though our group had definitely expressed reservations about the training, after the first day, attitudes had changed, and after the second day, even the staunchest objectors were singing the praises of Adventureworks. It was the customization for the group that really made the experience valuable. I often hear the team referencing the lessons we learned, and it has certainly helped us work through problems that arise. Thanks for the help."
— Perry Pelton, McDonald's

"ABSOLUTELY SUPERB! I could not have been more pleased with the results of our experience at Adventureworks. In one day, you did more to build our team than we could have achieved in a year in any other way. I know of no better investment in teambuilding than a session at Adventureworks."
— Dave Pickering, U.S. Air Force/Arnold

"Our team members have completed many trainings, on- and off-site, in a number of categories. They've all said, without exception, that Adventureworks taught them more about empowered teams and was, by far, more fun than any other training in their curriculum. In fact, they've asked to go back every year."
— Frank Kulak, DuPont

organizational development"I would heartily recommend this program to any group who considers themselves to be a team and who wants to become a better, closer-working unit. Again, thanks for helping to make us better at what we do."
— Vic McKee, Astra Merck

"It is very gratifying to see my team using the techniques Adventureworks taught as they go about their daily activities. Consequently, I am delighted to see them embracing the concepts and introducing them to their direct reports. I can truthfully say that this is one training program from which I believe I received full value for my money. Again, thank you for the quality and value of your product."
— Thomas Bain, Staffmark

"There are just no words that would accurately describe my management group's reaction to your program. Many were skeptical going in; all were committed converts coming out. Your understanding of group dynamics and your ability to draw strong parallels between the fun exercises and the business world made our time with you a consensus "best ever" business training session. I assure you, you will be hearing from Essex in the future."
— John Kiley, Essex Group

"Our management staff was very pleased that we were able to accomplish our teambuilding goals through your program, and we appreciate the work that you have since provided to ensure that our positive experience continues. Your staff helped us address some of the issues we are facing and facilitated an esprit de corps which will yield many positive returns in the future. Many thanks."
— David Taylor, HCM

"The relaxed setting, fun and engaging exercises, and the opportunity to share what was learned in a participative environment helped reinforce the targeted principles. Feedback from all groups, in all sessions, was very positive. The experience has helped us lay a foundation of cooperation and teamwork among our leaders. Please use this official thank you as an enthusiastic endorsement of the work you do."
— Radney Robertson, American Airlines
