Global brands trust Sponge for strategic learning consultancy
Strategy consulting
with a boutique feel.
Learning and Development is struggling with strategic influence and connecting what they do to the business. Too often the conversation goes straight to content, without the right consideration of context.
If you are looking to improve employee engagement, enrich learner experience, influence your learning culture, or develop consistent, scalable approaches to worldclass learning, a strategic approach makes all the difference.
Sponge offers enterprise learning strategy consulting with a boutique feel, to form a bridge between high-level learning consulting and actionable, pragmatic execution.
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.

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…
