APAC Offsite

Finally over.

I think it went quite well and all participants gave pretty good feedback. Here're some highlights.

1) Knowing You, Knowing Me
Considering that we had people from five different offices, employees old and very new, I thought we did a great job integrating everyone. The fact that we managed to conduct the whole event in as much English as possible, with everyone comprehending what was taught, was commendable. It was a great event to help put a face to every name finally.

2) CRM
It is no surprise that our CRM system is one of the most complex. All the new users reflected that they learnt a lot of its capabilities. Even the senior staff got to learn it's updated advanced functions.

3) Beer Trail
This was definitely the event most enjoyed by all participants. Not just for the beers, but also the sightseeing, silly activities and bonding with colleagues. This was very highly raved about. The sight of my Japanese colleague celebrating the photo opportunity of drinking water sput out by the Merlion was priceless!

4) Sales, Sales And More Sales
An external workshop, and a Sales Dialogue Process Flow was another highlight that a lot of the participants enjoyed. Even for the old birds, there was still so much to learn as we all update ourselves and adjust to the demands of our dynamic industry.

5) Lunch @ Sarnies
Closure to our mega event of the year. I think everyone felt sad it all had to end so fast. Yet it was fitting that this whirlwind get together ended this way on a high. Everyone was so tired already and we've just had a weekend burnt. 

Hopefully this pays off handsomely in the year ahead!
