Over 50% of UK workers have missed out on essential skills training
That’s why we partner with workplaces to support people to build their human skills.
The result?
People who share ideas with confidence, solve problems through experimentation, help and support co-workers, and transform the impact their organisation has on society.
MEET OUR FOUNDER
From building a career as a Spanish translator and trainer in the language services industry, to progressing as an academic in the higher education sector, a researcher in the charity sector, plus holding multiple leadership roles.
Hayley had a career full of work that required technical ability: command of a foreign language, lesson planning, and data analysis to name a few.
Although her technical skills were strong, she was rarely praised on them.
Instead, she was complimented on her confidence, curiosity, ability to self-reflect, and the way she supported people.
She soon realised that human skills are the key to career success.

“We typically spend a lot of time getting technical skills right. But, in the end, what makes a truly great employee is how well they work with other people.”
