WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY…
I had a wonderful experience with Happy Sandpit. From beginning to end I felt part of a family and to experience this adventure with new people was exciting and eventful. Collin and Linda, you are the best. I will gladly recommend the field trips.
I found great value in the Three-Day Field Trip. This type of learning is different yet powerful because it places you in real environments where you can interact directly with the culture drivers at various organisations. I highly recommend this to people who have the influence to shape culture in their organisations.
I didn’t know what to expect from my first Happy Sandpit Culture Field Trip, but after three incredible days, I see HR in a whole new light. Thank you to Colin, Deniah and Linda for an inspiring and educational journey.
I recently attended a three-day culture field trip that left me inspired and energised. Exploring other organisational cultures was insightful and a strong reminder of how transformative intentional culture work can be. I was moved by how openly organisations shared their initiatives, each delivered with clarity, purpose and heart.
A special thank you to Colin and Linda for ensuring that we gained maximum value from every moment. Their energy, thoughtfulness and commitment made the experience exceptional. Thank you also to Deniah, who worked tirelessly behind the scenes and kept everything running smoothly.
This experience broadened my perspective and reaffirmed how vital culture is to organisational success. I’m grateful to have been part of it.
