Continuous learning, beyond the formal learning environment, is a critical part of leadership and management program delivery.
Through discovery work that helps us analyse your target audience's daily reality, we combine leadership essentials with tools, resources, and solutions that help extend the impact of your learning program and transfer formal learning into the practical realities of day-to-day work.
Why Sponge?
Management and performance training for high-impact teams.
Brand aligned.
A bespoke approach to creating your marquee leadership and management training allows you to design a program that truly reflects brand, values, and business environment - making training feel relevant and applicable.
Strategically sound.
Most of our clients have a strong sense of the value their program will bring, but have yet to articulate and refine their objectives. We help you ensure "success" is exactly defined - for focus and strategic alignment.
Emotionally immersive.
Most corporate management training programs are disappointing and easily forgotten in the "everyday". Sponge exists to change this. Lasting, hard-hitting learning that sticks with people is our "everyday".
Deeply collaborative.
If we’re going to make impact, we need a partnership with the mutual trust that creates space for boundaries to be pushed. We aim for high-energy collaboration with our clients, where we can stretch for new possibilities and create something to be proud of.
