Quest Client Testimonials
Below are a few
comments received from clients in the past regarding a Quest team
building or team development event organised for them by QUEST.
“We
have recently experienced one of the most memorable and demanding
team building exercises in the last decade, whilst maintaining fun
and team spirit as key attributes of this event. The organization
and delivery of the event was handled with enthusiasm and professionalism
from the Quest team, and they have delivered exactly what the brief
prescribed. One of my colleagues suggested the event was managed “like
a well oiled machine!” I would have no hesitation in recommending
Quest to any other business wishing to organize a similar event, and
will I probably use their services again”.
Executive
Director, Capita Group PLC
"First
and foremost it was apparent from the word go that my group realised
they were involved in a professional event, the way in which your
team present themselves and the obvious preparation and attention
to detail projects very much the right impression."

"Thank
you and your team for putting together such a fun, energising and stimulating
session for us on Friday, particularly given the very short notice."
"I really
felt that you captured the essence of what I was trying to achieve
with the exercises that you put together; and all the staff, even
the most skeptical seemed to get something out of the afternoon."

Recipe For Success Team Building Event
Some comments from participants :
"I
think planning tasks and effectively managing time will have the greatest
impact - time is something that is pretty difficult to manage at Microsoft
as most things are urgent and need doing yesterday. Working together
to plan how best to use time allows us to work more efficiently as
a team."
"The
good thing was that the team was not too big to still be able to sit
around the same table. The day enabled us to get closer to a small
group of people, but the evening enabled us to know the whole group
in a fun environment where everyone had played a part in delivering
the fun."

"Dear
Martyn, Richard (and all the QUEST TEAM).
Many sincere thanks for all your efforts in both putting together
and delivering such a great and challenging programme for the U19’s
at such short notice. The initial feedback and response from both
players and the management/support team is very positive – think
we have hit all the key objectives and challenged the player’s
(and staff!!) well outside of their comfort zones."

"Quest provided
a first rate service in helping us understand our team dynamics. We
had a mixture of knowledge on tools such as Myers Briggs and they
expertly ensured everyone was on the same page quickly. They also
made these tools really come to life for our team by making them relevant
to our everyday work. The end result was a detailed Development Plan
for my team as a whole which far exceeded my expectations - the input
from Quest was crucial here."
Phil Sheehy,
Head of Products, RBS Cards. (MBTI
Training with Quest)
"I've been involved in a vast
myriad of training in my time with Grid and I appreciate it when people
really invest time and effort on my development… You'll be pleased to
hear that the senior management was exceptionally pleased with our results/
efforts and the event itself. We made sure to communicate the value
of the Quest weekend. Many thanks"
Manager – NATIONAL GRID UK
“From our point of view
the main success of the event was due to your ability to tailor the
day to suit our needs… you also adapted to our budget… you listened
to our objectives and literally incorporated them… and transferred them
into a workable and entertaining programme…It was excellent value for
money when you consider not only everything that went into the events
but more importantly what everyone got out of them.”

“As expected, Quest came
up with the goods; well-prepared and sensitive to the original brief.
We’ll be back for more!”

“…I would like to add to the feedback
you received from the team by saying that the organisation and enthusiasm
from Quest was excellent and made a huge difference.”
Retail Training Manager – Clarks
“Sincere thanks for
making our day so special – I’ve had tremendous feedback from the team
– not a bad word! As the team
‘leader’ it achieved everything I’d hoped for, and we’ll be spreading
the gospel to others in the bank.”
Senior Manager in personal Choice & High
Value Segment – Lloyds TSB
“The depth of preparation that your
team had undertaken and the wide range of activities that were laid
on for us was impressive. They
made the three days unforgettable and a huge amount of fun.
Having our own web site with hints, tidbits, and most importantly
photographs quickly after the event, was a great idea and kept the fun
going long after we returned! You have a very professional team, from
whom we learned a lot about each other and ourselves…I look forward
to the next one.”
Joint CEO Family Genetix Ltd
–Cherwell Scientific
“Providing a team building event for our IT Support Staff
from Inverness down to Exeter, getting them all to one location and
motivated is not an easy task. You
have now achieved this two years running, and with very different themes
so that staff really did not know what to expect even though they had
attended before.”
Senior Manager – Ernst & Young
“We
would like to express our heartfelt thanks for the truly professional
manner in which Quest delivered the excellent training weekend.
Everyone enjoyed themselves thoroughly, and also learned a great
deal about the theory of group work and leadership within that context.
Both the exercises and the teaching sessions were well planned,
and well executed.”
Lead Course Organiser/Lecturer - Institute of
General Practice – University of Exeter
“…thanks to you and your team for organising such
a great day last week. Feedback
is that it was the best team building event people had been on…“
SQL Server Product Manager - Microsoft
“I think the exercises which your team produced
were both appropriate and very well planned with a nice mixture of the
physical, the intellectual and fun…. On the whole, an excellent weekend;
fun, informative and team building.”
Lead Course Organizer/Lecturer - Institute of
General Practice – University of Exeter
“…thank you and your team for the substantial contribution
to the success of our European training event. We were extremely impressed with the quality
of work that you did for us… well designed… and run in a very professional
manner…the event was both effective in meeting the development objectives
and also a lot of fun for the participants.
Working with an international group of consultants is a challenging
task and I feel that Quest were able to meet and exceed our expectations.
A measure of our satisfaction with your work is obviously that we would
like you to submit an additional proposal for helping us with our course
in Frankfurt later in the year.”
Senior Manager - PriceWaterhouseCoopers
“I have no hesitation in
recommending Quest to any organisation that wishes to develop confidence,
teamwork and camaraderie within its staff…I found that Quest’s planning
and organisation was never short of excellent.
The training was perfectly suited to the need, and the whole
process was conducted in a challenging, but highly enjoyable atmosphere.
Quest will be my first choice for any future outdoor training needs.”
Head of Direct
Sales – Lloyds TSB General Insurance
“The
two days were a great success…the other managers have noticed a distinct
change in the atmosphere for the better”
