Drum Café

Profile

Team Building .......Every Company Has A Rhythm ... Find Yours!

It all started in 1994, when Nelson Mandela was appointed as South Africa’s first democratically elected president.

Inspired by Mandela’s message of unity, Drum Café took the concept of harmony to South Africa’s diverse business world, where hundreds of companies were eager to foster a culture of understanding and friendship, in order to cultivate a stronger work ethic.

Today, with offices across the globe and a multi-talented troupe of international musicians, Drum Café brings this unique concept to corporate, school and social events worldwide.

Drum Café has performed for Nelson Mandela, Bill Clinton, The Queen of England, Tony Blair, George Bush, Sigourney Weaver and Nicole Kidman.

Corporate clients include Microsoft, BP, FedEx, Starbucks, CIBC, Pfizer, Bayer, Royal Bank of Canada, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Dell, Cisco, Hewlett Packard, Kodak, CNN, 3M, Kraft, Coca-Cola, Disney, BMW, Motorola and more.

Drum Café's interactive drumming is a powerful way to make any event unforgettable! A world-class program - where everyone gets a drum - builds teams, unites companies, and motivates staff. Drum Café’s success is proven in over 25,000 events in 35 countries. Discover how they can inspire your organization.

Can a hollowed out piece of wood covered by a piece of stretched skin seriously make a difference to a corporation’s bottom line performance? Over 100 of the world’s Top 500 companies seem to think so.

Drum Café’s message has never been louder – or clearer. Businesses wishing to strike the right note can get closer to their goals with inspiration, motivation, and a well-timed boost of harmony. Something Drum Café provides. In abundance.

Offering the ultimate corporate experience, Drum Café’s team of world musicians and experienced facilitators will deliver interactive or performance programs at your venue of choice.

For interactive programs, they bring a drum fore every participant, from 5 to 5,000. Then the magic begins.

Led by their drummers, your team will find their rhythm. Hierarchies are broken down and communications barriers are dissolved. Tension dissipates and creativity emerges.

The sales manager relies on the marketing director, who in turn relies on the human resources manager, to all hit their drums at precisely the right moment – and achieve the common goal. One perfectly synchronized sound! The effect is moving and motivating – and a lot of fun.

Find your company’s unique rhythm.

If people can drum to the same beat, they can break down cultural and communication barriers and meet one another on common ground.
