GLOBELINK AUSTRALIA GOLD SPONSOR AFIF
CONFERENCE MAY 2015
Globelink International, Australia certainly had a busy year.
In May they were the key GOLD sponsor of the highly regarded forwarding
industry (AFIF) conference at Royal Pines Resort on the Gold Coast. After
last year’s ‘Far East’ theme, the Middle East was replicated with items sent
from our friends in Turkey, Egypt and a wonderful camel from Dubai.
Dubbed ‘Alice’, it was central to the display of posters, throw-rugs, cushions
and trinkets that festooned the display with a fabulous team of belly
dancers who had everyone up dancing! As sponsors of the Golf Day,
Globelink International set a precedence with the first ‘all girl’ golf team
doing our name proud.
GLOBELINK AUSTRALIA TEAM BUILDING
“HOW TO NAIL THE SALE“– XMAS IN JULY
The tradition of combining the annual team training weekend with
‘Christmas In July’ to stave off the winter blues was started last year. This
year’s training was held at the Sydney office focusing on the core
message: ‘Selling Our Service’, with team building exercises and role
playing. Staff pulled together to brainstorm and work on how we can
beat our competition with service and what it means to them.
A “celebration” followed at the beautiful Blue Mountains, renowned for its
hospitality in a majestic bush mountain setting. A traditional Scottish feast
was piped in by a Highland band with all the Christmas trimmings. The
weekend was capped off with an exciting day at the Blue Mountains
Scenic Rides with a hair-raising trip down the side of the mountain on the
world’s steepest railway!
