the trip such a spectacular celebration for our award winners, their guests,
executives in attendance and Olympic athletes.

 I
underestimated the power of the TeamBuilders WorldWide experience. Not only did every
participant enjoy the afternoon, the excitement and
enthusiasm carried all the way through the rest of our conference. Even now,
I still hear people talking about the incredible moral support they felt. I
had one representative say, "in the 25 years I have been with Campbell's we
have never done anything this exhilarating!

 I
would like to thank TeamBuilders WorldWide for putting together a very
cohesive event for the End User Support Team in Tampa as well as
my sister sites of Dallas and Seattle. Being able to leverage
all of the diverse work and personal backgrounds as well as
physical work locations was a main objective for choosing to
attend such an event. I am pleased to say that the objectives
were addressed and the parallel of outdoor interaction with that
of the work environment served its purpose.

 …the
program offered us a place to compete among ourselves, but most of all, an
environment in which to provide support to each other and to build and
strengthen relationships within our management team…I have seen the changes
in our team since we completed the program. The effectiveness of our
communications has improved. Our willingness to support and help one another
has increased. We have really come together as a team…

 The
activities you planned for us were well-designed and the group thoroughly
enjoyed the experience. After the time spent with TeamBuilders WorldWide, we went back
to our kickoff meeting, accomplished all of our deliverables, and also used
the tools you taught us. We are now a nationally networked team that knows
each other well and has already started to work on action plans together
despite the fact that we are now scattered all over the country. This is
great considering we didn't even know each other before the meetings with
you...

 As
a result of our program with your organization, we have been
able to accelerate our strategy and actually achieve an outcome
at least 10 months earlier than we had hoped for – hats off to
TeamBuilders WorldWide!

 All
early indications are that our participation in your two-day
program may be the most significant ‘personnel related’ event in
the 59-year history of our company. I cannot adequately thank
you for your outstanding efforts in personalizing the program to
Harrell’s needs. It was a significant weekend that will pay
dividends for years to come.

Our people had fun, were challenged, got pushed to acknowledge
some personal insights, and felt positively empowered and
capable. Following the program, managers rated your work with
them 4.6 and 4.7 on a scale of 1 to 5 on applicability to their
job and on helping them take new approaches. You’ve helped us
tackle some difficult issues in a way that saved time and
produced results.

 This
session exceeded my expectations as well as those of my team members. There
was some trepidation, concern and anxiety among the sales team and channel
partners attending the session prior to the experience. However, afterwards
the reaction was overwhelmingly positive. My objective to break down
barriers, develop effective communication and develop effective teaming was
achieved. Thank you for working with me and helping me achieve my
objectives.
Jaqueline A. Totten
Global Channels Director – Optical Networking

 I
would like to thank you for the superb job you did in facilitating our
executive strategic planning sessions. The pre-planning meetings you
scheduled with us helped to keep the process pertinent, focused and
engaging. It was apparent you took the time to understand our goals and
objectives before you put yourself in front of us. We are excited to step up
the
challenges next year.
Bob Conigliaro
Vice President, Community Relations

 Over
the past two years we have had the pleasure of having TeamBuilders WorldWide design
and facilitate the Team Jumpstart programs for our Corporate Controller's
Department. What has truly impressed us is the appropriateness of the
activities and discussions tying back to the workplace; it has significantly
enriched the experience of our associates.

 TeamBuilders WorldWide
has really brought us together as a team! They have learned the whys of our
business, and they have been key in helping us come together and become more
committed.
TeamBuilders WorldWide has been very successful in tailoring programs that
are unique to New York Life’s needs, and then getting the New

Thank
you for the great learning experience. As you know, we are not
stopping here. We will build on the momentum created by
continuing interaction and teambuilding training!

 …You
guys were awesome! We had a great time at your Outdoor Learning Center. We
needed to participate in an activity that would unify our group before
moving to our new facility – after having been separated for almost a year.
TeamBuilders WorldWide
definitely accomplished this, and more...We are grateful for your
hospitality, education, and entertainment…

 Omron
had a huge goal to accomplish: create a team of 'Problem Solvers' with our
entire staff of sales, marketing and application engineers. Hiring
TeamBuilders WorldWide at all three locations helped Omron realize that goal. I needed
something more than just a fun event. I needed a company that we could work
with hand-in-hand to develop a program that would introduce the 'Problem
Solvers' message. In addition, since the team-building session was the very
first event within a 3-day program, it was critical for it to set the tone
for the entire event. I hope there will be further opportunities for our
companies to partner again.
Ginger L. Chasteene
Advertising/Promotions Manager
Omron Electronics
 I
must admit that in the weeks before the event, my peers were very skeptical
about this program. Many of them stated that they had done these events
before, they were all the same, etc. But your team made believers out of
them…everything went so smoothly. Your team possessed unbelievable
presentation skills and presented the Myers-Briggs in a way that was not
only informative but also fun. They really understand what they are talking
about and truly have fun doing it. I have never heard so much laughter
amongst my group. It has been quoted that this year's meeting was the 'best
yet'.
Linda Rutkowski
Manager, Sales Administration and Operations
Remington
 Your
facilitation of the breakout sessions, as well as the full group
activities, was superb, exceeding our very high expectations. I
was particularly impressed with how the Myers-Briggs, the
interactive learning activities, and the strategic action
planning all fit together so well and drove home our key areas
of focus for 2002. I hope our sales people can get to know their
customers as well as you did.
George H.
Oelschig
President
Safemark Systems
 The
program was enthusiastically received, the facilitators were
great, and our objectives were accomplished. By mixing the
divisions together in small teams from the same geographic area,
we sent people home with a spirit of cooperation and new
friends.
Paul B. Hogan
Vice President – Sales
Sealed Air Corporation
 The
message of ‘Beyond the Box’ really hit home as we ask our sales
force to perceive and function as a team. Taking the time to
know our company and the needs assessment really paid off as it
showed in the customization of our program.

 …Thank
you TeamBuilders WorldWide for the great job during our conference at the Mission Inn
Golf and Tennis Resort. It was our first ever network wide conference for
Staples US Stores Distribution and was extremely successful due to your
program. The preparation before the
meeting was essential to us meeting our objectives. The questions you asked,
the time you took planning and the ability to meet our needs by not
delivering a canned package were critical to the success of our event. Your attentiveness and
methodology allowed your team to relate activities to the classroom portion
of the meeting…the lessons learned that day have truly made a difference to
our group.

 I
cannot begin to tell you how beneficial our time was together
for all of us at SYSCO Central Florida! Usually, in fact never
do we trust outside companies to be involved in our training in
any fashion. This is due to the fact that I do not think that
anyone truly understands our business except us. However,
TeamBuilders WorldWide will be an exception from now on. The lessons we
learned about how to communicate internally and stay focused
through your group dynamic initiatives were invaluable to our
staff. We still talk about the things we learned from
TeamBuilders WorldWide almost weekly in our staff meeting that you guys so
skillfully helped us to design. Your team helped
our team more than you will ever know. Please use me for a
reference in the future. You converted me from a non-believer to
a believer in TeamBuilders WorldWide! Thank you again for what you have
done for our Senior Staff!

Thank
you for presenting to the American Gas Association and Edison Electric
Institute's (AGA/EEI) Customer Service Conference in Orlando, Florida. Our
keynote address, 'Discovering the Magic', set the stage for this conference
for the over 150 customer service utility executives from across the nation
and the world. The opportunity to actively engage the audience in
identifying key challenges helped them to focus more clearly on what the
balance of the conference could do for them and
their organizations.

Technology Strategic Planning Session
Thank you for providing our team with a terrific experience. As
our management team has been newly assembled, the teambuilding
session assisted us in developing a better sense of
understanding of each other as we transitioned into our planning
session. Your facilitator was great and maintained a perfect
balance of challenge and patience as our team all learned
together. We were impressed with his knowledge of our industry
and his ability to lead us in some thought provoking debriefs.
Scott H. Smith

 In
spite of the adverse weather conditions, you and your group were
able to quickly and effectively change venues and modify the
program to meet our objectives. We were most impressed with the
high level of professionalism of all the group facilitators.
Each was very well prepared and wove into the exercises our
corporate objectives and strategies.
Thomas F.

Vice President, Public Affairs
ThyssenKrupp Budd
 The
benefits to our senior management team from the various programs over the
past two years such as the 5-Star Team Performance Indicator and the Myers
Briggs assessment tool have been invaluable to our success as a group. Our
most recent successful day was obviously a bit out of the ordinary. I
appreciate you not only planning all the logistics, but doing so as
creatively as you did. From the assignments you gave our team (renting
mountain bikes, bringing compasses, maps, etc.) to the clues you left for
them to follow, it was obvious you had a well thought-out master plan.
Craig J. Chapman

…
I was at a somewhat critical point in addressing communication
and team issues that were impeding our progress. With your
input, facilitation skills, and feedback, we achieved a very
successful meeting that accomplished even more than I had
planned. You spent many hours of your own time to help me
prepare for a detailed custom meeting and this was a key factor
in the success. My team walked away with a strong mission
statement, department objectives and core values that they could
believe in and work toward, in addition to a renewed sense of
team purpose.
