The 4-day meeting, titled, "Creating Southwest Success," involved leaders in sales, operations, research and finance for the cable company. "The Comcast program was designed to engage leaders in interactive games focused on communication," said David Lengyel of Venture Up, who hosted the team event at the Westin Beele Street in downtown Memphis.
Since 1983, Venture Up has run team development programs in Memphis for companies such as FedEx, UPS, Nike, AutoZone, ServiceMaster, Cargill and Reynolds.
Corporate training is an ongoing process at Comcast as it is with most successful companies. The firm recently increased broadband capacity and network capabilities and is revving up products and services to suit the needs of small and large businesses who rely on its business internet, ethernet, TV and voice services. Comcast offers residential and business customers more for the money, and competitors are taking notice.
Comcast is ruffling the feathers of competitors, such as Sling TV, for "competing unfairly on the information superhighway," according to a recent article on the Digital Trends website. But customers don't seem to be complaining for getting more bang for their buck.
According to the article, "Comcast is currently testing 300 gigabyte/month data caps in several cities, charging users a fee of $10 for every additional 50GB of data after they hit the cap. Medium to heavy users of streaming services like Sling TV, Netflix, or other bandwidth-hungry Internet services will be the hardest hit by the caps should they be rolled out nationwide."
Comcast Cable is a global media and technology company, and one of the the nation's largest video, high-speed Internet and phone providers.
