CORPORATE

“10 out of 10.  Mahalo nui loa to you and your staff for the awesome opportunity to experience the adventure of a lifetime to many and to help set a course toward positive interaction, communication, planning & strategizing, and leadership development within our company.  When we chose the theme for our corporate year, Sur5vor, little did we know what an impact your teambuilding facility and challenge course would be to our Executive staff, directors, and management.  Your commitment to safety was foremost and your certified team facilitators did an excellent job of encouraging participants to step out of their comfort zone, take the 'leap of faith' and begin a journey of new discovery within themselves. After the excitement of the retreat was brought back into the company fold we thought it would benefit more of our associates if we took it one step further.  We were pleased to have you come to California to facilitate and train 180 more team associates so that they could take back to their stores a renewed level of commitment to the Mission Statement of Nugget Market.  You carry with you the true spirit of Aloha and we look forward to seeing you again.  Mahalo.”

– Greg Stille, Vice President, Director of Nugget University, Nugget Market Corp.

Just wanted to let you know they commented on your professionalism and expertise as being terrific. I don’t think I’ll ever underestimate the power of a positive, out of the box activity. The renewed connections between staff enhanced our attitudes and effort, and the day to day by products are seen in receptivity, helpfulness, and support to one another. So thank you very thank you very much for a great adventure. We really appreciate the effort you put into it.”
