The team building and product learning exercises on Waiheke Island will take place on Thursday 7th and Friday 8th August 2008.
Fullers Operations Manager Ian Greenslade said:
“Waiheke was the natural choice for our first teambuilding event of 2008 as Fullers and its staff has a natural affinity to the Island. Greenslade continued; “whilst the event is primarily about teambuilding, the event is also vital for our staff to try first hand the products we offer and provide recommendations for possible improvements to our customer offer.'
The start of the 2008 series of staff teambuilding exercises follows on from similar successful exercises in the late 1990's known as the “Barrier Assault” when Fullers sent staff to Great Barrier Island, this exercise is hoped to be the first of several this year involving a number of Fullers staff.
The thirteen staff will be joined by the Fullers management team for a dinner on the Thursday evening at a local Waiheke restaurant.
A presentation will subsequently be given by the team to management upon return to their workplace including suggestions for improvements on existing products.
