Facilitation work in KwaZulu-Natal
Few provinces offer the mix of settings that KwaZulu-Natal does, from a sea view boardroom in Umhlanga to a lodge in the Drakensberg foothills. Durban brings the port, logistics and manufacturing firms, the eThekwini metro and regional head offices around Umhlanga Ridge and La Lucia. Pietermaritzburg holds the legislature and many departments, so APP and strategy sessions are steady there. Richards Bay adds heavy industry and the coal terminal, Newcastle has steel and textile plants, and sugar cane and timber run through the coastal and Midlands farms. Delegates mostly speak isiZulu and English, so bilingual facilitators and MCs are in demand. Summer is hot and humid on the coast, and the Midlands and Berg suit residential breakaways most of the year.
Typical soft skills training requests in the area come from:
- Companies and head offices: communication, presentation and conflict courses for office teams and new managers
- NPOs, churches and community groups: volunteer and fieldworker training in listening, conflict and working with the public
- Schools, colleges and universities: communication and conflict skills for school admin staff and lecturers
