What we don't do
We'll work with you to understand your existing learning tech stack and how to maximise value and impact from your learning technology.
However, we are not a learning platforms specialist. Some clients are seeking support to help them scan the market and review feature sets and functionality: this isn't a service we offer.
We do not provide consultancy that specifically relates to the integration of different platforms and technologies, or migration across platforms.
We focus on the 'enablement' of your people. An essential part of our consultancy will be to look at the structure of your organisation to understand the context and frameworks your people operate and learn in.
However, we do not advise on Human Capital Management or org design.
Why choose Sponge?
The strategists who know how to execute.
Enterprise consulting; boutique feel.
We’re not a “big box” consulting firm, with cookie-cutter models. You’ll get a partner who really engages with your challenge.
The best ideas in the biz.
‘Unforgettable’ starts with a great idea. We’ll bring you the latest innovations from inside and outside your industry.
Unwaveringly pragmatic.
Big Consultancy can provide abstract ideals and abandon you to execute. We can take you from strategic vision to reality.
An energetic, empathetic partner.
Visionary work starts with trust and energy in the relationship. We focus on earning the right to be your strategic partner, long-term.

There’s a gap. L&D functions are highly motivated to be more strategic, but they are under-resourced, under-funded, and, even in the case of mature L&D in big corporates, often under-respected. But, says, Josh Cardoz, Chief Creative & Learning Officer at Sponge, taking steps towards a more strategic approach doesn’t have to be as unreachable as all this makes it seem…
17%
of L&D teams “feel they have the right strategies in place to tackle the challenges they will face in the year ahead." (Elucidat 2024)
If you are stuck in what you are trying to do, then 9 times out of 10 it is because you are not asking the right question.
