“A huge THANK YOU goes out to Wayne Bennett and TeamWorx for making our team building events so successful! We recently had 2 company events with TeamWorx and Wayne and his team did an amazing job!!! We wholeheartedly recommend them to other organizations! Wayne made things easy for us to have a successful program with his excellent service – extremely professional, dedicated and very friendly. Our colleagues here are still raving about it and saying it was the BEST team building event we have ever had here at Cognizant. Our team thoroughly enjoyed it and found it to be extremely rewarding to present the bikes to kids from local Boy’s and Girl’s Clubs and enjoy the looks on their faces….truly an experience to be remembered! Thanks again Wayne for everything and we look forward to working with you again next year!!!”

“Like many large organizations, when we first hired Wayne from TeamWorx we were dealing with a multitude of issues with our staff. There were trust issues, communication issues, issues between line staff and upper management, and many tangible consequences from these issues in the workplace. I was amazed at the rapport Wayne built immediately with a wide range of employees, and perhaps even more amazed at how quickly he had them engaged in meaningful conversation with each other. You could actually see them building trust and improving not only communication, but collaboration between bureau’s as well. We were impressed with the initial jump start he provided, and even more impressed as we have brought him back year after year with the sustainable positive results. He has made a very tangible difference in the feel and function of our workplace. I would highly recommend Wayne to any organization looking to make improvements and dramatic change in the areas of trust building, communication, collaboration, teamwork and leadership.”

“It has been my pleasure to work with Wayne and his talented team for the past 5 years- each program that he has facilitated for us has been very successful and well received by our participants that range from Senior Partners to New Managers. Wayne’s energy and charisma are catching and not only are our people learning to team more effectively but they are also having fun and building lasting relationships in the process. Working with Wayne is very easy and he is full of great, creative and innovative ideas. In our last event we built backpacks for the Boy’s and Girl’s Club children – we filled over 120 backpacks with much needed school supplies- having the children join us for lunch to receive their new backpacks was definitely a defining and memorable moment of our conference! Wayne took care of it all- from arranging the activity, bringing the supplies to working with the children’s counselors to bring them to lunch. I look forward to working with Wayne and the talented Teamworx crew at many future events!”

“I highly recommend Wayne Bennett’s Interactive speech. He is an energetic and articulate speaker who connected with our audience. He integrated issues that were directly relevant to our company, and provided insightful ideas about how we could maximize our ROI through improving teamwork. He is knowledgeable and a people person. His speech touched the intellect and emotions of our team, and prepared us to maximize our team building program following the speech. The combination of the speech and a well run professional team building program was the perfect combination. We definitely left with a lot to think about and an appreciation of the things we are already doing great.”

“My colleagues agree with me that the team building event with Teamworx was one of the best ones we have ever had at our meetings. It was well suited to our Business Technology group as it engaged them in problem solving and played to the strengths we use in our everyday business environment. It was also an excellent way to get our global audience to get to know each other better in productive and meaningful ways. The charity component at the end provided a meaningful impact, and truly touched the lives of some wonderful young people from the local area. All in all, a great ROI for our meeting experience.”

“When looking for a partner with whom we could create a teambuilding event for 300 people, we were referred to Wayne Bennett and TeamWorx – and I couldn’t be more pleased. Wayne’s creativity and flexibility allowed us to modify one of their existing teambuilding/community service programs to suit our needs – specifically networking and personal interaction while giving back to the local community. TheSmile Sack event was a great success with our attendees, and we look forward to partnering with TeamWorx again in the future.”

“I just wanted to say thank you to Wayne and his team- they were extremely professional and friendly-you could tell that they were there to make my life easier. We brought staff from 9 states in 23 offices to South Lake Tahoe for a 2 day conference and Teamwox was a hug contributor to a successful conference! Teamworx was so easy to work with, I told them what I was looking for and what I had hoped to accomplish and they took care of EVERY detail! People are still talking about the Amazing Race and how much fun they had- this is something that has made firm history! Teamworx hands down made our conference an event to remember- we can’t wait till next year to try out one of his other events.”

“People are still raving saying the Dream Builders was the BEST team building event ever! This event touched my organization in a way that no teambuilding we have ever done in my 12 years with the company has ever done. We ran a highlight reel at the end of the event which showed some footage of the children and my entire group was in tears. Even my CEO was crying. ”

“Just want to again thank you for the nice bicycles that were given to the kids here at the Boys and Girls Clubs of Miami Dade County. These “precious gifts” were right on time especially for two of the children here at the Northwest Unit. It was their birthday and they didn’t have a bicycle at all. So you have made their day.”

“We hired TeamWorx to create an event that would enhance the relationships and teaming efforts of our San Diego and Orange County offices. In developing “The Laguna Beach Amazing Adventure Race”, TeamWorx provided an interactive event that found common threads between the two offices. The competing teams enhanced their relationships while being entertained and educated, in an engaging forum. We applaud TeamWorx for their efforts and look forward to working with them in the future.”

“The Yosemite Amazing Adventure Race with TeamWorx was Fun, Enjoyable, and Entertaining and all feedback from attendees was positive; the group requested that the program was “not to intense” and their requests were heard. The program was perfect and they will definitely recommend it to others.”

“I think as good as our two-day program was, your event was the one everyone talks about the most. It was just great. Our Training Section was pretty impressed as well. And we love the pictures! These are such fun. Very considerate of you and a nice way to “keep the feeling alive.”
Linda BrughelliCalifornia Department of Justice
“Our group really enjoyed working with TeamWorx. Everyone at the event said that the Team Building exercise was awesome. You really helped pump everyone up and got them working together. Since we were two separate companies this was a great ice breaker and a great way for employees from both companies to work together as one. Thank you again for being so organized and professional. We will definitely be using you in the future.”

“I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for a great team building event a couple of weeks ago in Huntington Beach. The Teva Specialty Managers had a great time and the Amazing Adventure Race was a perfect fit for this highly competitive group. This event was definitely one of the highlights of the meeting. It was great working with you and we look forward to partnering with you in the future.”

“The event went great yesterday. Amber was a real trooper with the intermittent wind and rain bursts we had. I really feel like people got to know each other better and that this will improve communication between us and our regional offices. We had a lot of fun. I referred our marketing department to you yesterday for a team building event.”

“The team building element provided by Wayne Bennett and TeamWorx was the highlight of our recent leadership retreat, and far exceeded our expectations… He effectively and seamlessly accomplished in three hours what other team building programs have failed to do in two days or more. His program fit perfectly into the resort facilities, and into our busy schedule… We would definitely use Wayne at future events, and recommend him to other organizations that are planning strategic retreats or group conferences. The return on investment made the program well worthwhile. ”
