Office Angels
There are two tiers of reward, 'Wings' and 'Halos', each linked to achievement of recruitment targets for both permanent and temporary positions.
As well as involving consultants from throughout the company's national network of retail branches, there are criteria allowing branch mangers, area managers and Head Office personnel to also qualify.
In Spring, 'Wings' featured Copenhagen, the largest urban centre in Scandinavia - a city that is both exciting and relaxing.
The Danish capital is a shoppers' paradise as well as being famous for the quality of its restaurants, and for its nightlife. In short, it's ideal for a mainly female group! Highlights included a leisurely guided walking tour and a private cocktail cruise through the canals of the city followed by a gourmet dining experience at Noma, where only native Nordic ingredients are used.
The 'Halos' award ventured to the westernmost corner of British Columbia. The leading city of Western Canada, Vancouver has 3,000+ restaurants, superb shopping, great nightlife and such famous attractions as Granville Island, Stanley Park and Gastown.
Language, currency and cuisine were all easy for UK residents to understand and master, making this ideal for a short stay, high profile incentive reward.
Highlights included a walk over the North Shore's Capilano Canyon Suspension Bridge and riding the Grouse Mountain SuperSkyRide.
In addition to limousine airport transfers and vintage car rides to dinner on the final evening, guests enjoyed aerial views of the city, the harbour, Victoria Sound and the mountains on private float-plane flights from a jetty adjacent to their hotel.
