    Everything was fantastic!!! Your hosts did great work!
  • Amanda D.
    Working remotely, it's hard to form genuine personal connections with colleagues. This is now my second and our team's third virtual event with you and each time we feel like we learn so much more about each other! Love the vibes and the environment
  • Per R.
    Nik has never let us down! This is now the third time we've had him host our event, and he knocks it out of the park each time! A great way to break ice with new colleagues!
  • Per R.
    When working remotely, it can be really challenging to establish genuine connections with colleagues. This is my team's third event with Nik and it brings us so much closer each time (and we absolutely LOVE him and how much he remembers us). Highly recommend for all remote teams!
  • Konnie M.
    Thank you for the opportunity to share our feedback and suggestions. First of all, Yael was great! Our participants were polled, and the event received an 8 out of 10 overall rating and are 88% likely to recommend to colleagues. We will be moving forward with including CourseHorse events in our 2023 program. Opportunities for improvement: The note pad/template: If the provided template is just to be used as a note pad, perhaps we can do without it. It was confusing. The scoring section to the right and readability of the document were challenging. Shy participants not engaging: We had a LOT of shy people in this group and the started ‘chatting’ their input instead of talking. Some of this may our company culture, as they want to talk over each other. Suggestion for these two first bullet points: We think supplying a simple list of the Q’s, easy to read quickly and scan, plus instruction that each person is to choose a question - would give individuals the opportunity to participate, as opposed to shrink into the background ANS eliminate the confusion with the note pad/template. Slow down the instructions at the top of the event. Even though it will take more time, checking to make sure every participant is clicking and following along would be great. VPN challenges. Maybe we are the only remote team using VPN… so this may be just and “US” issue. Suggestion is to add a mention at the top to sign out of the VPN. Nice quotes: “The Ice Breaker event was super fun and forced us to take time to socialize and shake off work mode; yael had great energy and liked the music in the beginning. appreciate prompting people to unmute and talk as opposed to drop in chat.” “Loved the Ice Breaker event, would be so happy to do it again (and tbh I was dreading this, I thought it would be so awkward, but it was actually SO FUN)” “The questions were really interesting and made for good conversations.”
  • Gabriella D.
    Our team really enjoyed the format of the games. We did 2 back to back events; our host was engaging and did a great job. I also appreciated that everyone was so flexible in using Google Meet which was a requirement for us b/c we work for Google. They did test runs and met with us beforehand to ensure everything went smoothly. Overall a great experience.
  • Kevin R.
    Please pass along to Yael and James that we all thought they were GREAT hosts and the feedback I have received from everyone was extremely positive. Sounds like everyone had a lot of fun!
  • Amanda H.
    The facilitator was amazing, it was so easy to book and everyone had a great time.
  • Haley I.
    Excellent host and great team building experience!
  • Patricia M.
    Thanks Katherine (sp) was great and we totally enjoyed having her as the host, so much fun. Thanks again for an amazing event!
  • Kevin R.
    I signed up for “Get to know your teammates” as a way to bring two companies together to celebrate and prepare for our transition from a “customer/vendor” relationship to a true partnership. With the travel limitations imposed on us by the pandemic, our goal was to find a fun way for both teams to build rapport and perhaps even friendships prior to kicking off our joint business venture in a virtual way. This IceBreaker game did exactly that! Not only did both teams have fun, but it gave us the opportunity to learn about each other at all levels (as in, mid-level ranks got to interact with VP-level and grow those bonds) and let our hair down a bit. CourseHorse brought professional, well-prepared moderators to lead the games and tee up the lively discussions and it was a breeze to set up and coordinate with them. I’d highly recommend to any business looking to build rapport with their internal and external teams!
  • Anthony H.
    The Get to Know Your Teammates Icebreaker game was a blast for the entire team! The moderator was a lot of fun and made it easy and fun for the whole team. She and the CourseHorse team made it easy for me to get everything scheduled, work with our team to get it scheduled and set it up to where we would have the most fun possible. The way it was broken down not only made it fun but more importantly, made it where we truly got to know each other on a more personal level. I highly recommend the icebreaker and CourseHorse to anyone looking for a great way to spend time with your team, regardless of the event! You will be very grateful you went this route!
  • Mandi F.
    Our team really enjoyed this game, everyone learned something new about their colleagues, and we definitely had a few laughs throughout the game.
  • Mark W.
    I thought it was an organized but open way for the team to get to know each other. It wasn't awkward or forced people to participate.
  • Sophie F.
    Every event we've had has been phenomenal. The events are fun, the facilitators are engaging, and I love how much of the work of planning fun bonding events is taken off my plate.
  • Lea N.
    We had a great time finding out more about eachother and there were a lot of laughs. That actually went even better than I had expected. Thank you once again. Coursehorse has never let me down and will continue to book with this company! Nick did a great job leading us and being so patient with some of the team members who were having issues navigating while on Zoom. Thank you once again. I will continue to book with Coursehorse!
  • Vanissa T.
