About Us

Our Background

 

In February 1992 the Dream Team was formed by Theo, Geoff & Gerry. With backgrounds in training and development, motivation and conference entertainment the trio soon became one of the most sought after "extras" at conferences throughout South Africa. Dream Team helped shape the fledgling industry which grew and prospered throughout the 90's.

At the turn of the new millennium companies started demanding more value and measurable results. Frivolous activities could not be justified as inclusions in team getaways if they were not going to add value to the process and if the delegates and indeed the company had no return on the time and money invested. Coinciding with this new dawn Tom joined Dream Team and with an extensive entrepreneurial business background and a decidedly hands-on approach he soon became the fourth Director.

Dream Team were ahead of the curve and had already partnered with leading global practitioners to ensure that the product portfolio was relevant and helped to make a difference. Today partnerships with Catalyst Global and Hercules Trophy ensure that Dream Team are able to offer their clients the best solutions available worldwide.

Our Approach

The Dream Team work at the cutting edge of teambuilding. Our clients appreciate true quality – a creative approach based on sound concepts and practical experience. We offer structured interventions that address specific needs and achieve measurable outcomes as well as high energy events that will simply delight and astound even the most jaded participants!

It’s All About People

Our people and yours. We employ the best and never stop developing them. We are committed to getting the best out of your people and thus your teams and your organisation. We are not teachers or preachers but facilitators who can share the knowledge skills and drive needed to bring about positive change.

Dream Team events have a unique style. Teambuilding Events, Conferences, Training Programmes, Incentives, Celebrations & Fun Days all take on a fresh look and feel when we are involved.

Our Unique Guarantee

We want you to be sure that you are making the right decision when trusting The Dream Team to make your next conference, event or teambuilding day the best ever!

In all likelihood, by the time you make this important decision, you will have received a detailed proposal from us. You will have had an opportunity to speak to our existing clients and will have received some objective feedback on our professionalism and abilities. You will have met with us and we will have ascertained the desired outcomes of the event and we will have answered any queries that you may have. Once we have agreed these we promise to meet, and where possible exceed, these expectations. If we don’t we promise to refund our fee in full. It is as simple as that. Either we deliver or you don’t pay.

A much more likely cause for disappointment is the occurrence of inclement weather. Again you have no need to worry! If it is not possible for us to stage the event that we promised, we offer you DOUBLE SATISFACTION!

• An alternative event that can take place at the appointed time, date and venue. Most of our programs can easily (with minor amendments) take place either indoors or under sheltered areas such as lapas, functions rooms etc.
• If the program has to be altered substantially we still provide an alternative but will also reschedule the original activity at a mutually convenient date at no cost to you. Venue hire, lunches etc. will still be for your account however.

We want you to know that your real guarantee of a great experience is our track record and reputation, built over 16 years with 400, 000 clients and in excess of 1000 companies. But we also know that an "insurance policy" where we, and not you, take the risk would be most welcome!

Catalyst Global

Dream Team Catalyst are dynamic members of the ever-expanding community of Catalyst Global offices. Being an integral part of this highly resourced network enables us to continue to be competitive in delivering a large proportion of our business overseas.

Whether you require a series of events across several regions, or a single event anywhere in the world, you’ve come to the right place.

Multinational companies need to deliver consistent messages to their clients and, most importantly, to their employees worldwide. To achieve outstanding customer service an organisation must value, engage and enthuse its people at every level. Choosing a teambuilding supplier for your next event is a critical decision; with a myriad of options it is important to establish credibility and trust.

We pride ourselves on being a truly global partner to many blue chip companies. Catalyst’s network of regional ‘head offices’ is present in every continent (except Antarctica!) and rewards our loyal client base with many benefits:

• Understanding the needs of multinational organisations.
• Consistency of program design and content across the world.
• Confidence in a supplier with extensive experience, history and resources.
• Professionalism, cross fertilization of ideas, shared knowledge and best practice between our regional partners.
• Originality; our teambuilding 'gurus' constantly communicate and draw on their collective experience to generate new and exciting activities relevant to current business values.
• Specific local and cultural knowledge within each region.
• Cost saving; with a worldwide distribution of offices, equipment and personnel we can help make significant savings for clients organising teambuilding at international conferences destinations.
