We custom design and deliver 8-week virtual learning sprints for you
Our virtual 8 week sprints to allow your employees to learn through real-world projects and problems. We don't do theoretical courses that are not tied to your immediate business outcomes.
Each sprint is 8 weeks, which is long enough to show results and short enough to create a sense of urgency
It's different to a conference or a workshop. It's not an one-time event. We don't take employees away from their regular jobs, but actually accelerate the outcomes of their jobs, get their jobs done faster and better. Being virtual, with twice a week interactions through a structured program (tools, measurement and accountability) we can guarantee amazing learning.
We offer co-founders who join your team (not a consultant, mentor or advisor). This is a learning process expert, embedded into your team who pushes, prods, and pokes holes throughtout the 8 weeks in an intense way. Our co-founder mindset and approach ensures that learning is not done 'to' you, but with you - so the skills remain inside your organisation long after the learning incubator
Each 8 week sprint is highly focused - the outcomes are measurable. For example we are looking to define the problem first and then use the learning incubator to solve that specific problem, allowing us to know if and how our learning is making a real difference to business results
Example of one of our learning incubators:
16+ hours of one to ones with virtual co-founder,
20+ hours of our co-creating
15+ hours of knowledge and skills development
20+ "getting out of the building interviews
We execute as well as advise (making it different to the usual coaching/mentor programs)
