North West notes on facilitators for hire
Mines around Rustenburg and Brits hire facilitators for stakeholder meetings with host communities, as well as supervisor and team sessions, and they value someone who can work in Setswana. Departments in Mahikeng book strategy and APP sessions, sometimes at a lodge in the Pilanesberg area. Hartbeespoort is popular for corporate team building and bosberaad style days, because Gauteng teams can drive out and home again the same day.
North West: the employers, the venues and the calendar
Platinum shapes much of the training calendar in North West. Mines and their contractors around Rustenburg and Brits book safety inductions, supervisor development, community engagement workshops and learnerships year round. Mahikeng, the provincial capital, brings the legislature and departments, with strategy and APP sessions for the public sector. Potchefstroom is a university town with education conferences, and Klerksdorp and Lichtenburg serve gold mining and the maize farms of the western plains. Hartbeespoort and the Magaliesberg sit close enough to Pretoria that Gauteng teams drive out for strategy days and team building by the dam. Setswana is the main home language, with Afrikaans and English widely used, so check the language of any community session before choosing a facilitator.
The requests we see from North West usually come from:
- Mines, plants, factories and farms: mine and community forums, and union and management meetings on operational topics
- NPOs, churches and community groups: AGMs for NPOs, clubs, body corporates and stokvels, and church council meetings
- Schools, colleges and universities: parent meetings, governing body meetings and staff meetings on difficult changes
