If you are looking at RBTHOL for a team building day, you are probably also comparing RBTHOL alternatives. This page sets out what RBTHOL says about its team building service, who runs the company and what to ask any team building provider in Singapore before you sign a quote.

RBTHOL PTE. LTD. is a Singapore company incorporated on 3 August 2026. Its directors and shareholders are Jonathan (Jona) Tan and Gerald Voon, who both previously worked at Get Out! Events. RBTHOL is a separate company and is not affiliated with Get Out! Events. For a wider comparison across conferences, dinners and activations, read RBTHOL vs Get Out!

What RBTHOL says about team building

RBTHOL's solutions page lists team building as one of six core services. Its website states that team building days are planned around a goal, such as better communication, more trust or settling in new joiners, and that it picks activities for the result rather than the novelty. The same page says RBTHOL provides itemised quotations, costs changes when they are raised and sends a short recap after the event. It also says the team that quotes an event is the team on the ground on the day.

RBTHOL's blog, reviewed on 30 September 2026, includes three team building articles. One on large groups says that past about a hundred people, briefing, movement between stations and the slowest station take up much of the day, and recommends timing every station in a rehearsal. Another suggests asking any supplier, in writing, for the group sizes they will run, who is facilitating and what happens in the debrief, and the plan if it rains or attendance drops.

Who runs RBTHOL

The company's business profile lists two directors, Jonathan Tan and Gerald Voon, both appointed on 3 August 2026, the day RBTHOL was incorporated. Both are also its shareholders. Jonathan Tan is known as Jona Tan.

Jona Tan and Gerald Voon previously worked at Get Out! Events. We mention this because buyers comparing the two companies often ask, and it is useful context when you assess experience. It is not an endorsement or a criticism of either person. Get Out! Events has no ownership interest in RBTHOL and no partnership with it.

Whichever provider you speak to, ask the proposal to name the person leading your team building day, the facilitators on site and any suppliers delivering activities. For any recently formed company, it is also fair to ask which examples were delivered by the company itself and which reflect the team's earlier experience. We would expect the same question to be put to us.

Choosing a team building partner: a buyer checklist

Most team building days succeed or fail on the brief. Before you ask for quotes, agree internally on these points and send the same brief to every provider on your shortlist.

  • Objective: what should be different afterwards, for example cross-department trust, onboarding new joiners or a merged team working as one.
  • Headcount and profile: an estimate is fine, but note age range, fitness levels, dietary needs and any accessibility requirements.
  • Time slot: a two-hour session, half day or full day, and whether it sits inside an offsite or conference.
  • Venue status: booked, shortlisted or open. Indoor, outdoor or both.
  • Budget range: per head or total, and whether it includes food and transport.
  • Must-haves: a leadership address, a debrief, photos or video, prizes.

Group size and format

For groups under about 40, a single facilitated activity often works, with everyone in one space. Between 40 and 150, most formats rely on smaller teams rotating through stations or running in parallel, so ask how many facilitators the provider plans per team. Above 150, transitions, briefings and meal service take up a real share of the day. Ask for a timed run sheet that shows how much of the programme is actual activity.

Outdoor formats in Singapore need a realistic wet weather plan that holds the whole group, not part of it, plus shade, hydration and heat management. Indoor formats need enough floor space and sound control for several teams working at once.

What a team building quote should cover

  • Programme outline with timings, including briefing, transitions and debrief
  • Number of facilitators and the named lead on the day
  • Activity materials, equipment and set-up and teardown
  • Venue, food and transport, if included, shown as separate lines
  • Wet weather arrangements and any extra cost if they are triggered
  • Insurance, safety briefing and first aid coverage
  • GST treatment, exclusions and how headcount changes affect the price
  • Cancellation and postponement terms, and quote validity

Questions to ask every provider

  • Can you show a comparable team building day, with a similar group size and objective?
  • Who will lead on the day, and who facilitates the debrief?
  • What happens if attendance is much lower or higher than planned?
  • How will you measure whether the objective was met?

RBTHOL team building activities: what its website lists

RBTHOL's blog, reviewed on 12 October 2026, includes a team building activities guide alongside its articles on corporate team building and large groups. RBTHOL's website states that most formats fall into three families, physical, cognitive and making, with outdoor days treated as the physical family with weather added and a reward or experience day treated as a separate purchase. At category level, the guide lists:

  • Physical: sports hall challenges, quick court games, indoor climbing and other active sessions run in heats.
  • Outdoor: water sports, field games and trails between checkpoints, with a note that an outdoor day needs a rain call made in advance and an indoor fallback.
  • Cognitive: escape rooms, business simulations, case challenges and puzzle hunts.
  • Making: cooking challenges, kit builds, building items to donate and craft workshops.
  • Experience: classes, tastings and music workshops, which the guide frames as reward and morale rather than development.

The same guide recommends working groups of about five to seven people, a debrief after the activity and half a day as a sensible minimum. These are RBTHOL's own descriptions of formats it discusses. As with any provider, ask which activities its own team facilitates, which are delivered by activity suppliers and venues, and which examples it can show for your headcount.

Team building formats compared

The table below is a planning guide for comparing formats from any team building provider in Singapore. Group sizes and durations are typical planning ranges, not fixed rules, and every provider should confirm them in writing for your event.

FormatTypical group set-upTypical durationBest forWhat to ask any provider
Physical games in a hallSmall teams rotating through stations in heats2 to 3 hoursNew teams and mixed departments who need energy and quick winsHow many stations and facilitators, and what role does anyone who cannot run take?
Outdoor race or trailTeams of 5 to 8 moving between checkpointsHalf dayGroups who want a day that feels away from the officeWhat is the rain call time, who makes it and where is the indoor fallback?
Water sports such as dragon boatingBoat crews with a coach per boatHalf dayTeams who respond to shared physical effort and rhythmWhat are the swimming, safety and lightning stop rules?
Cognitive: escape rooms, simulations, casesGroups of 5 to 7 with a facilitator who can read the room2 to 4 hoursTeams whose problem is how information and disagreement moveCan the case use a real problem from our business, and who runs the debrief?

Indoor vs outdoor and wet-weather planning in Singapore

Singapore weather decides more team building days than the activity list does. The end of the year is usually the wettest stretch, and afternoon thunderstorms are common in the inter-monsoon months, so an outdoor plan without a written wet-weather plan is really a gamble. Heat matters too: a midday start outdoors tires a group before the activity has done any work.

When indoor is the better first choice

Indoor formats remove the rain call and the second booking. Cognitive, making and workshop formats are indoor by nature. Physical formats need a sports hall rather than a carpeted function room, and a low ceiling rules out anything thrown. Indoors, noise becomes the constraint, so ask for breakout rooms or well spaced tables.

Wet-weather checklist for outdoor days

  • A fixed rain call time, and the name of the person who makes it.
  • An indoor fallback that holds the full headcount, booked before the day, not searched for on the morning.
  • A clear lightning rule for water and open field activities.
  • Whether the fallback costs extra, written into the quote.
  • Shade, water points and a morning or late afternoon start to manage the heat.
  • Transport and meeting points that still work if the plan moves indoors.

Measuring whether the day worked

Attendance and a smiley face survey tell you whether people enjoyed lunch. To know whether a team building day did its job, decide the outcome before you choose the format, then check it afterwards.

  • Write one outcome sentence first. For example, two merged teams sharing work without escalating every decision.
  • Protect the debrief. Schedule it before the last break and ask the facilitator for one note per group on how decisions were made.
  • Ask the same question before and after. A short pulse question on cooperation or trust, asked a week before and two weeks after, shows direction without pretending to be science.
  • Look for one named moment. A week later, ask managers whether anyone can name a specific moment from the day that changed how they work.
  • Check behaviour at work. Look for the change you named, such as cross team requests answered faster or quieter members speaking up in meetings.
  • Record what to keep. Note group sizes, timings and weather decisions so the next day starts from evidence.

If you want a format matched to your headcount, goal and wet-weather risk, Get Out! Events can propose a plan with the facilitation and debrief written into the quote.
