    Rethinking culture in a hybrid workplace

    Rethinking culture in a hybrid workplace

    70 percent of transformations fail, largely due to people- and culture-related challenges. With the significant changes on both, personal and business levels, leaders can’t assume that they returned to the same culture that existed pre-pandemic. The pandemic has brought individual purpose to the fore, creating opportunities for leaders to help their employees identify what truly matter to them and help them find more purpose in their work. The building blocks of a strong cult
    Why great leaders are great storytellers

    Why great leaders are great storytellers

    Storytelling can make or break any initiative. A poor storyteller can downplay the best ideas, while a strong storyteller can present a daunting concept with compassion for their audience.

Organisations with learning-oriented cultures value individuals who bring unique and varied perspectives and experiences to the table, increasing diversity and inclusion within the workforce. The power of any organisational c
    Addressing the post-pandemic learning and development gap

    Addressing the post-pandemic learning and development gap

    The pandemic has transformed how we work and with the majority of organisations focusing on survival over the last 18 months, training and development activities have stalled. The World Economic Forum estimates that technology will replace 85 million human jobs, while 97 million new ones will be created in the next four years. Workforces are now moving toward increased automation at a rapid pace, driving the need for improved management and decision making as we embark on the
