Creative Group Canada Honoured with SITE Crystal Award for Excellence in Incentive Travel: North America
Creative Group Canada, a leading meeting, incentive and recognition company wins another SITE Crystal Award.
TORONTO, Feb. 9, 2021 /CNW/ -- Creative Group, Inc., a full-service live and virtual/hybrid meeting, incentive and recognition company, was recognized by Society for Incentive Travel Excellence (SITE) with a Crystal Award for Excellence in Incentive Travel: North America at the Crystal Awards Recognition Ceremony held during the 2021 SITE Hybrid Global Conference.
Creative Group's client, a major financial institution in Canada, hosts an annual reward and recognition event for their top investment advisors. The main objectives of the program are to offer education; recognize qualifiers achievements; allow time for networking with executives and colleagues and inspire and motivate future performance. Usually, more exotic international destinations are chosen for their participants who are accustomed to elite programs with unique offerings and high-touch service. A decision to stay closer to home in 2019, resulted in the selection of Washington, DC for the conference.
In terms of education, this destination provided a unique opportunity to embrace the idea of "Power and Politics in Washington." It featured an array of high-profile speakers, such as James Comey, former head of the FBI; John Brennan, former director of the CIA; and renowned author, journalist, and Pulitzer prize winner Bob Woodward of the Washington Post. The line-up of guest speakers was most definitely a highlight and one that many attendees said would not soon be forgotten.
Karen Weegar, Account Executive with Creative Group Canada said, "We are honoured to be recognized with a prestigious SITE Crystal Award. Our team was committed to creating a unique and memorable experience that showcased the destination and achieved the objectives of our client partner. The success of this event is a testament to the power of incentive travel to help people thrive and impact business results."
"2020 was the 40th anniversary of the Crystal Awards. The winners prove the extraordinary value of a well-planned and executed incentive travel program. We salute them all," said Aoife Delaney, CIS, CITP, Director of Marketing & Sales at the DMC Network and President, SITE.About Creative Group
