Stellenbosch notes on facilitators for hire
Executive teams and boards often book a strategic planning facilitator for a two-day offsite on a wine estate, sometimes with a graphic recorder. Team building ranges from blending sessions to vineyard walks; ask for shade in summer. The university and research groups book workshop facilitators for planning and change processes. Ask facilitators about Afrikaans if the group prefers it.
Stellenbosch: the employers, the venues and the calendar
A university town surrounded by wine farms, Stellenbosch attracts two kinds of bookings. The first is academic and research: the university, its business and medical schools, and the tech firms in Technopark book staff development, leadership programmes and workshops. The second comes from Cape Town and further away, since companies and boards bring strategy days, executive offsites and conferences to wine estates in the Jonkershoek, Helshoogte and Banhoek valleys. Local NPOs in Kayamandi and Cloetesville run youth and community programmes. Delegates speak Afrikaans, English and isiXhosa. The town is about 50 km from Cape Town and close to the airport. Summer heat in the valleys and winter rain both shape plans for outdoor team building.
Who asks for facilitators around Stellenbosch, most often first:
- Companies and head offices: strategy days, team sessions and cross-department workshops at head offices and regional branches
- Event organisers and associations: breakout sessions and workshop tracks within a conference or association gathering
- Schools, colleges and universities: staff development days, school governing body planning and district workshops for principals
