Corporate Team Days, Conferences and 200 year old forts…
On Thursday I was lucky enough to be invited down to Portsmouth to view the fantastic corporate entertaining facilites on offer and the newly redeveloped Gunwharf Quays Harbour. Gunwharf offers eveything you would expect from a 21st Century retail development - trendy cafes and bistros, cinemas, shops, boutiques and hotels - with the [...]
Being on the receiving end of events
The bank holiday is now over and our sales team have had a very busy day today. We have noticed a slow down over the past couple of weeks and almost got into panic mode with everybody talking about the economic slow down in the press. Well it’s not all bad and there are still [...]
Entertaining at the Cricket
Team Tactics ran a really very special event last week with guest speaker Sir Richard Hadlee giving his views on cricket and the test match, England v New Zealand.

Central London Taken Over by Corporate Cookery Events!
When we first put our ‘How to Cook Asian’ Corporate Cookery event together, there was a little cynicism in the office – would it work? Is it really a ‘corporate’ event?
