NOT YOUR TYPICAL TEAM BUILDING

Are you looking for a new way to inspire your team? To shake up the regular approach? Let the World Famous Pike Place Fish Market mongers show you how fun, interesting and engaging work can be everyday.

Transforming from a regular fish shop to a World Famous tourist destination did not involve changing every aspect of the Pike Place Fish Market. The most important variable that we changed was attitude. We approach each day with the core belief that it is possible to create the future you want. We chose to be World Famous...What will you choose?  

BACKGROUND

In 1986, Pike Place Fish Market was floundering. The owner at that time was nearly ready to give up, but as a last gasp, he contacted a consultant who convinced him he could turn the business around if he took an entirely new approach to managing his team. Instead of a top-down approach, the Pike Place Fish Market crew designed a new vision for their future, and they were empowered to get creative and make it happen.

With the whole team invested in this vision, everyone became a key contributor, leading to massive improvements in all aspects of the business. Even small changes like the time-saving step of throwing the fish to the crew behind the counter for them to wrap, turned into a crowd favorite activity, that now draws people in from around the world. 

Pike Place Fish Market caught the attention of the media as well as business leaders wanting to bring some of this same innovation and energy to their organizations. As a result, the mongers hit the road and started offering a wide variety of inspirational and informative events, sharing their message of empowerment. You can meet the mongers and bring some of their key lessons for productivity, creativity and commitment to your team. Give us a call to learn more.  800-542-7732

LEARN FROM US - WE’VE BEEN THERE

Highly engaged teams are the difference between a thriving organization and one that's faltering because of ineffective mindsets and unchallenged methods. An important key to employee engagement and high morale is a positive workplace environment where deep trust and mutual respect form the backbone of the organization. 

We throw fish, and you should too!

Whether at retreats, conferences or offsite events, we help groups recognize the skills they need to be their best selves at work and in life.

  • coaching
