Training that inspires positive change

Training That Inspires Positive Change

Corporate training must do more than deliver knowledge – it must change behaviour.

Techniques like implementation intentions, diagnosing real barriers, and embedding learning in realistic contexts ensure training actually sticks and gets applied.

Does experiential training with actors work?

We asked 5,882 participants across 506 sessions: 97% said we inspired them to make a positive difference at work. Better still, our six-week follow-up impact surveys reveal 70% implementing their plans, 85% believing the training was worthwhile, and 90% confirming it inspired positive change.

Learning in context

Direct experience beats passive instruction. Through actor simulations and dynamic ‘real-play’ exercises, employees practice in environments that mirror their work. This experiential approach, grounded in behavioural science, has greater credibility and impact. As Dan Heath puts it: “people see something, that makes them feel something that gives them the fuel to change.”

The result…

When learning combines realistic scenarios, emotional engagement, and concrete action planning, it creates lasting behavioural change. That’s not just training – that’s transformation.

This was by far my favourite course of them all and made me feel more comfortable about having difficult conversations in future, not only with customers but also with staff.
I cannot thank you enough for landing what was an incredibly impactful session- honestly it was epic! So many people spoke afterwards & were just gobsmacked at the experience they'd gone through. Someone said it was the best session they'd ever experienced ... awesome & really got tone, emotion, alignment to our industry too.
The session was fab, really engaging and comfortable. The training felt really authentic and was super insightful.
The actors were incredibly convincing and really allowed us to take a step back from the recruitment process and analyse it.
It helped me realise the skills we require to provide a great service to customers. As well as way to improve on our current skills.
