Ask facilitators about Afrikaans if the group prefers it.
Facilitators and providers in Stellenbosch
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.
Typical strategic planning facilitators requests in the area come from:
- Companies and head offices: executive off-sites, business unit strategy days and planning before the financial year end
- Event organisers and associations: association and professional body strategy days for councils and committees
- Schools, colleges and universities: university and college strategy sessions, and school development planning with governing bodies
