Week four arrived, and the competition is hotting up! Some of our participants find themselves a month into Biggest Loser, looking down and seeing an overall gain, whilst others have reached in excess of 3/4/5% weight loss…
As week five approaches, the motivational quote on the top of our leaderboard changes from, ‘put the biscuit down’, to ‘that’s the stuff, keep it up!’ We are getting deep into the process, without anyone choosing to give up so far.
With a trip to London, and endless work-based temptations, it was the turn of Tom from the Marketing team to put pen to paper on the blog… Here’s how his week turned out:
So, I get a lot of people telling me that I don’t need to lose weight, and that it’s stupid me taking part in this ‘Biggest Loser’ competition as I don’t have enough to lose to win it… but for me it’s not necessarily about winning (although I am very competitive).

Quvu header image motivation

According to a report by Red Letter Days, 82% of employees who felt motivated at work in 2015, had received some form of reward or recognition for a job well done! As former U.S President, Dwight Eisenhower once said, “Motivation is the art of getting people to do what you want them to do because they want to do it.”
Now don’t get us wrong, it’s all good and well for Mr Eisenhower to say that, but with all due respect, we doubt that President Eisenhower ever spent time among the hustle and bustle of a busy contact centre.
Motivation can go a long way in helping your centre reach its targets; applied ineffectively could see numbers plummet, both financially and operationally, as employees may look to go and work somewhere they can feel motivated and appreciated.

British Flag

State of Play
On June 23rd 2016, millions of people up and down Britain will take to polling stations and register their vote, for or against a Brexit.
It is a topic that has divided not only a nation, but the political parties tasked to run our country; the Conservatives stands at an impasse, with the two biggest names within the party, PM David Cameron, and Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, voting In and Out respectively. Whilst the Labour party stands relatively united, with only seven out of 222 MPs declaring that they support the ‘Leave’ campaign, four Democratic Unionist Party MPs have also pushed for a Brexit, along with sole UKIP MP, Douglas Carswell.

Cruising to Victory!

By ptadmin about 3173 day(s) ago

Back in August 2015, we launched a competition, giving people the chance to win a luxury cruise for 2 to Spain and the Canary Islands, as part of our 10-year anniversary celebrations.
This competition closed on New Years Eve, with the hard work starting for us, upon our return to the office after the festive season. There was maths, physics and photography involved, as we searched through the thousands of entries, looking for that lucky person who had correctly guessed, who come closest to, the Wisdom of the Crowds value we had calculated.
Well after all the calculations, all the searching and verifying had taken place, we found our winner, and in the videos below, you can not only discover who our lucky winners were, but also see our unfortunate bloopers reel from the day we opened the telephone box, and check out our video interview with our winners!
