Cebu Teambuilding Services, a training partner of Gestalt Wellness Institute, is proud to announce another novel feature in local programs for team building, company outing, and other training events: sponsored team building, company outing, sports fest, and other training and development events.

What programs does Cebu Teambuilding Services facilitate? In the interest of providing potential sponsors with a clearer picture of the kind of the programs that we run, we have identified at least five main categories: corporate programs, programs for government agencies, programs for not-for-profit organizations, student and youth programs, and public programs. One category which we are currently studying is a program for tourists.

The bulk of the clients of Cebu Teambuilding Services are business organizations, which are either owned solely by an individual, owned by a partnership, a cooperative, or a corporation. Most corporate programs that we are engaged in are programs in team building, conflict resolution and management, team bonding, trust building, efficient communication, and change management. We are also being tapped to organize sports fests and company outing events. Our corporate clients include Aboitiz Equity Ventures, Aboitiz Foundation, Visayan Electric Company, Unionbank, City Savings Bank, Metaphil, Aboitiz Power, Pilmico, Ayala Land, Federal Phoenix Assurance Company, Autoliv, Taylor Science & Technology Philippines, PODD, Convergys, Aegis People Support, Teletech, Teleperformance, Doworth Corporation, Treadtel Tires, Outsourcesg.com, Yamaha, General Electric, YYKredit, Philsouth Properties, Tejero Highland Resort and Adventure Park, Project Lifelines, Open Access Marketing Philippines, Alain Asia, Akromont, Del Monte Philippines, Taking You Forward, Belcris Foods, Diamond Suites, Trends & Technologies, Intuit, Teradyne, Utilibill, Lundbeck, Gothong Southern, Intuit, Expedia, Petron, Titay's, Alliance in Motion Global, Kumon Tacloban Center, Activation Machine, and International Life Case Management Services.

What benefits do organizations get in exchange for sponsoring company outing, team building, and other training events?

All sponsors are afforded an opportunity for brand exposure. The bigger the sponsorship packaged availed, the wider the brand exposure provided. Exposure of sponsors' brands are done in a variety of platforms from event collaterals, participant giveaways, social media and online collaterals, etc.

Facebook likes, twitter followers, Instagram followers and other favors that will boost the social media reach of sponsors and support their social media and search engine optimization efforts to further improve their website traffic will be made available to sponsors.

On-site marketing activities may be done by sponsors on the event date. This could be in the form of flyering or putting up a booth to sell products.

Sponsors may be given access to video and photo documentation of the event for use in their promotional campaigns.

Major or silver sponsors cover around 25% of event costs. Other costs may be covered by other sponsors or the sponsored organization.

Technical sponsors are non-cash sponsors that provide technical expertise in support of our programs.

Product sponsors are non-cash sponsors who provide complimentary products that are necessary or important in the success of our programs and events at Cebu Teambuilding Services. Examples are bottled water sponsors, energy drink sponsors, apparel sponsors, and gadget sponsors.

Informational sponsors are entities that focus solely on the promotion of events through information technology: be it print, television, radio, or blogs. Cebu Teambuilding Services will rely heavily on these type of sponsors to spread information about our programs and events. No cash is solicited from informational sponsors.

Cebu Teambuilding Services is the strongest brand among team building and training services providers in Cebu. We also figure prominently at the national level. To some extent, we are also being noticed internationally.

Cebu Teambuilding Services prides itself to be the biggest team building and training services provider in the country. We can service groups as large as 1,000 heads and still maintain a 1:10 facilitator-to-participant ratio. Cebu Teambuilding Services is part of many mentoring programs that are mostly based in Cebu, and just recently in Dumaguete City.

Since its inception in 2012, Cebu Teambuilding Services have serviced a powerhouse list of organizations already. This experience is further strengthened with the partnership entered into with Gestalt Wellness Institute in September 2014. The professional experiences of our pool of facilitators is vast and varied, spread across almost all industries. 

Our Clients

Huge Network

Because of its wealth of experience, Cebu Teambuilding Services have developed strong cross-industry partnerships and relationships. We enjoy good relationships with beach resorts, hotels, mountain resorts, and urban resorts who comprise the bulk of our venue partners. We work in close coordination with our transport partners, catering partners, technical partners, and informational partners. As we embark on this new journey, we also look forward to build good relationships with PR and marketing officers, brand officers, and advertising executives.

Our people at Cebu Teambuilding Services takes pride in being constantly challenged to produce better ideas all the time. This culture of out-of-the-box and without-the-box thinking has allowed us to create a variety of novel programs. We brought team building programs into the streets of Cebu when it used to just be confined within the apparently safe environment within one venue. We found a way to address team building objectives even with programs that bring out natural competition. We experimented with how our programs can be utilized in other learning environments such as ESL schools and tourism.

Facilitators and consultants affiliated with Cebu Teambuilding Services are students for life and treat each day as a learning experience.

One very good reason to do team building activities for members of an organization is to get the team to perform at a very high level. Teams have to understand that teams do not automatically just click and immediately work at a high performance rate. High performance teams go through several stages before they even perform at a high level.

According to Bruce Wayne Tuckman in his theory of the stages of group or team development in 1965, teams go through the stages of forming, storming, norming, and performing. It is the goal of each team to get to the performing stage.

Why do organizations need to do team building programs for their employees? One theory suggests that team building programs help build camaraderie, examine fair and equitable practices from within the organization, and encourage and motivate everyone towards working for fulfilling personal and group achievements.

According to David Sirota (2003) in his 3-factor Theory of Human Motivation in the Workplace, the three pillars that motivate people at work are (1) fair and equitable treatment of all individuals within the organization, (2) camaraderie among colleagues at work, and (3) motivation to achieve important work or simply put, achievement motivation.
