TESTIMONIALS

lloyds logoMany thanks for an excellent day. Kate and I have had some good immediate feedback which has on the whole been extremely positive, it was also good to hear from Mark Winterburn that we need to think outside the box (square) more often as we move forward.

SanofiThe day went very well, the Team Dynamics was great fun. The Ice Cream was very entertaining!  Mark & Hannah were fantastic. Everyone had a really good time. The set up for lunch was good and the evening meal was lovely.
HR, Sanofi Aventis

 

SAICThe two events facilitated by Poisson Rouge brought energy and a great atmosphere to our Management Conference.  The guys from Poisson Rouge were also easy to work with, down to earth and responsive to our needs. The Ice Cream Challenge made individuals from diverse backgrounds work as part of a team in a competitive but completely unusual environment, and provided entertainment for the whole group which really broke the ice as the first event of our conference. The Drums Challenge was our final event and we needed no consultant to point out the obvious inferences: by pulling together as one large team, we can make real music, enjoy ourselves and see the value in each other’s individual strengths. The Drums was probably the highlight for most of us: it was liberating, it felt refreshing, the sounds were amazing and it was just really, really fun.

PepsicoThanks for organising this activity for us. We had a fantastic time and everyone was absolutely amazed at the end result! All I have heard since that day is “when is our picture going on the wall?!!”

BVGI just wanted to drop you a line and say thank you so much for the time and effort put into last weeks team event; everyone had a fabulous time and really got a lot out of it, which for us was a tremendous acknowledgement from the territories. It was a great improvement from last years team building event in Budapest and we can’t wait to organise next years event.

I also want to say a big thank you to Hannah who became part of the BVG team in an instant and really made everything flow so well from the beginning to the end and I really look forward to working with her again.
European PR Manager, Buena Vista Games

 

ABNI just had to write and thank you and your team for such an immensely enjoyable day on Saturday. The ‘Challenge’ and Cycling followed by The Diamond Challenge were exactly as you described and certainly a great deal more! To see so many tired and happy faces in the evening said it all, especially when they are telling stories of their experiences!!!

I hope that we can work together again soon.
Manager, ABN AMRO

 

FutureNow that I’m a little more recovered I just wanted to thank you for your superb organisation, communication, liaison and co-ordination of, what was, a hugely successful day for us! Everyone really enjoyed the day and it exactly fitted what we needed in terms of interaction, fun, relaxation and communication and everyone thought the challenges were great fun. Thanks for making it so easy from my end – I look forward to working with you again.

DepuyI would just like to pass on my thanks and appreciation for the planning and the hard work you put in to the Passion Sessions you ran for us on the 7th September. It was an excellent day that ran without a hitch! (even after the lack of sleep due to the dodgy Blackpool tourist)

The feedback from the teams has been very good, with them thoroughly enjoying the session and especially the outcome!

Thanks again and I hope to work with you all again in the future.
HR Manager, DePuy CMW

DefraI would very much like to thank you and your team for all your assistance and hard work in the organisation and facilitation of our Divisional Away Day on the 12th July 2005.
The day ran very smoothly and I have received extremely good feedback from staff who found the day relaxing and enjoyable.

I wish you well for the future and hope that we will have the chance to work with you again.
PS to Senior Manager, DEFRA

 

SaracenI would like to thank you both for your assistance on our Conference in Nice last week. 

From our point of view, the event as a whole and the team building events in particular were a tremendous success and we look forward to working with Poisson Rouge in the future.

ThomsonWell what can I say, a really wonderful evening which completely blew everyone away.  I was a little apprehensive before the start not knowing what to expect, but I can say it was way above my expectations and the fact that Tom and Simon managed to get 40 odd people from 23 different countries and cultures from Latin America, Middle East, Eastern Europe, Asia Pacific and Japan to come together in unison singing and drumming was no mean feat.

The feedback after the evening was excellent, the dinner was great as everyone was relaxed, talking and mixing well - a great ice breaker.

Well done and thanks to all.
Thomson

 

FMC LithiumOnce again a really big thank you for the training you delivered for us in November, it was a really great success - everyone still talks about it, even now.
HR Manager, FMC Lithium

Future PublishingJust wanted to say thank you to you and your team for coming up trumps yet again.
Everyone had a great time - they have talked about nothing else since getting back yesterday.  Your activities are definitely the highlight of the conference - with the exception of my speech of course!!
Anyway - get your thinking cap on for next year...

Christain SalversonWe were very impressed by your ability to respond to our needs with such rapidity, the limited notice given and the scope of the challenge. I would also like to thank you for your professionalism and for letting the top layer of management throw tennis balls around!
CEO, Christian Salvesen Group

 

Highways AgencySpeaking to everyone this morning they all said that yesterday had been very worthwhile as well as being enjoyable. It set the right balance between finding out more about ourselves, our strengths and weaknesses as a team and the issues we need to look at to improve things both for our own benefit and that of the Agency as a whole. The day went quickly and everyone made a contribution. This is clearly a reflection of your skills in preparing for the event and flexibility in managing the actual day.
Head of Department, Highways Agency

 

AngelThank-you on behalf of all at Angel Trains for you and your team’s contribution to this year’s offsite. The staff feedback has been excellent and we look forward to seeing the paintings hanging in our offices. I am sure the team will be in touch to arrange a de-brief session in the near future.
Managing Director, Angel Trains

 

Solid HomesMany thanks to you and your team for a very successful event on Friday. We had a great day, I heard nothing but praise for the event and it was certainly the talk of the evening telling the Directors what we'd been up to and what they'd missed out on!
PA to CEO, Solid Homes

 

CapitaMany thanks once again for the Poisson Rouge elements (of the away day), which were extremely good and really added to the overall success of the day.
Marketing Manager, Capita Resourcing

 

CentricaThanks very much for an excellent event yesterday. I believe that the whole thing went very well and the novel approach to some of the team development activities was much appreciated. I also got a lot from the syndicate sessions and think that the theming process worked well.

I think that my view of “get the experts in to do a proper job” rather than make do with internal resource who do not have the expertise (because it is not their area) was fully confirmed.
HR Manager, Centrica

 

Debra VealIt was without doubt the most creative conference that I have ever spoken at.
