About our Online Learning Experiences

  • ABOUT THE COURSES: The online courses we have designed are educationally sound, academically validated, and business actionable. They are all carefully crafted with a flow to make sure effective learning occurs and in a way that can be applied in the workplace.

  • TOPICS: We are the original designers of interactive learning experiences which build future leaders and high performing teams for a more innovative organizational culture. Our courses are designed to help leaders and teams in the key areas of: Innovation, Creative Thinking, Communication, Collaboration and Narration (vision mission values)

  • COURSE PROGRESSION: 1) Intro, Pre-course with Essential Pack (with digital notebook); 2) Core Content (webinar OR online self-lead); 3) Extended Learning Journey; 4) Advanced Assignment Courses (webinar + online course + assignment); 5) Specialised Accredited Coaching Courses.

  • THE FLOW: The sessions follow our 4 Rs method to ensure learning. The 4 R’s > Review, Refresh, Reflect & React;

  • METHODS: Integrated into the sessions are specially designed books, audio casts, white papers, podcasts, interviews, videos etc all sequentially placed in the courses to get maximum learning;

  • THE PEDAGOGY: The courses will help leaders and teams to reflect on and find real solutions to business needs offering a risk-free high impact engagement. Our blended learning allows participants to make the best use of their time to self-pace. A) They can undertake preparatory activities prior, then B) jump straight into higher order active learning during class time, (involving peer instruction & feedback). C) This can then be followed up with goal setting, + the options of extension strategic planning, assignments, present backs & pitching (including feedback), to ensure actionable lasting results.

  • VALUE: The value of blended learning is that it allows participants to best use their time to self-pace and engage with interactive content, focusing on key concepts (outside of a classroom setting). This allows for any face-to-face / digital workshop time to be used for collaborative activities that clarify concepts and contextualise knowledge through application, analysis, planning and problem solving. These courses will help leaders and teams to reflect on and find real solutions to business needs offering a risk-free high impact engagement. Our courses are educationally sound, academically researched, and business orientated.

  • WHO: The sessions can complement any professionally facilitated core workshop (face to face or digital). They can be used by a company (group) or an individual wanting to upskill themselves. OR a participant who has participated in a session and wants to independently upskill deeper in the topic.

  • SELF-LED: To help independent leaders diagnose issues faster and collaborate in teams better, we have created Core Elements courses that are based around self-led ‘Collaborator Canvases’ and gamified simulations. These resources are designed to create safe spaces for teams to discuss challenges and come up with effective strategies to deal with them.
