INTRODUCTION

 

Greetings!  In our effort to continue to provide the highest level of customer service, we are pleased to announce a number of new partnerships and program offerings.  We also have some terrific partner discounts this month so if you are in the process of planning a meeting make sure to take a look.  Thanks for reading and please keep in touch! 

 


ANNOUNCEMENTS

 

New Partner: Great Oak Manor!  Gooseworks is excited to announce that we have partnered with Great Oak Manor to provide our customers with insider access to another terrific retreat location.  The Manor is a quaint bed and breakfast located on the outskirts of Chestertown, Maryland.  With twelve guestrooms and a variety of meeting spaces to choose from, this is your perfect small group meeting location.  Inspiration

doesn’t come from a stuffy meeting room with fluorescent lights.  Original thought happens in a meeting space with brilliant views of the Chesapeake—where all your needs are taken care of, so you can get down to business.  Take a look at the Great Oak Manor website for more information about this peaceful retreat location.  www.GreatOak.com

 

New Partner: Living Classrooms Foundation!  Gooseworks is thrilled to report that we have partnered with the Living Classrooms Foundation in order to offer our clients access to some truly unique programming opportunities as well as access to some of Baltimore's premier meeting space.  Living Classrooms shares our commitment to experiential education and we look forward to developing joint service learning opportunities for our customers.  www.LivingClassrooms.org

 

New Program Option: Soaring to New Heights!

At Gooseworks we are always developing new programming options to keep your team building retreats fresh and fun.  We are very excited to announce that we have added a competitive rocket launch program to our repertoire.  This program is fun for any group and particularly well suited to high energy sales teams.  Rockets have been known to reach heights of 100 feet!  How high will your rocket go!?

 

New Service: Brainstorming & Consensus Building Sessions!  Gooseworks is now offering customized brainstorming and consensus building sessions.  We use a number of proven methods to facilitate creative and productive brainstorms.  We believe that interactive and engaging brainstorms lead to the best ideas and help to build consensus among the group.  You'll be amazed at the results!

Written by Deirdre Crowley and Phil Kiracofe, March 2009

 

They’re like Generation X on steroids,” says Bruce Tulgan, a founder of Rainmaker Thinking, which studies young people in the workplace. “They walk in with high expectations for themselves, their employer, their boss. If you thought you saw a clash when Generation X came into the workplace; that was the fake punch. The haymaker is coming now.”

 

The growing influx of the Millennial Generation into the workplace represents the greatest shift in generational work styles ever recorded.
