Learning & Development Design
Learning and Development training solutions to solve your organisational challenges.
Our design packages focus on building trust and real connection within the team. This enables team members to sustain their performance when faced with challenge.
It is important for us to review existing packages and achievements before creating something new. We can design a range of innovative training solutions focused on leadership development, team building and team resilience.
What is Learning & Development Design?
Our Learning and Development consultancy packages are designed to help your organisation create sustainable and resilient teams. We aim to stretch and challenge your teams to take an adventurous approach to their work. We bring evidence based theories and scientific evidence to life through our experiential design. By embedding an adventurous mindset into our programmes and helping delegates to step away from their desks, we enable teams to build deep rooted and meaningful connection.
Our Process:
With any new client or project, we start by understanding the challenges the organisation is facing and what they are trying to achieve. With this understanding we then, collaboratively co-create a solution to resolve those challenges.
Once the plan is agreed, we then agree the best way to deliver the training, sequence and timelines. This could be in intense couple of days or with time built in between to apply learnings and reflection on what has been discussed.
During the implementation phase, there is often a need to evolve and adapt the workshops, training and support as we go, as things often change between the initial briefing and point of delivery. It is important that we respond to the needs of the delegates. At the end of the training it is really important we understand if it has addressed the challenges faced and identify and further support required.
“I knew I had a few issues around self-confidence and self-belief and I was beginning to think this was holding me and my business back. Trying to surf for the first time and jumping off very high rocks into the wea when I a terrified of heights as well as group sessions focused around leadership, gave me some inner strength and grit I hadn’t tapped into before. Two months later I got the investment I had been pitching for, for the past 18 months. I am sure that my newfound resilience and self-belief had a lot to do with it!”

“Nicki is such a down-to-earth, warm and friendly host, with so much knowledge and experience to learn from! Her outlook on life and genuine passion for wanting to encourage others to take a chance and step out of their comfort zones is incredibly inspiring. Aside from coming away from the workshop with memories, experiences to tick off the bucket list, new friends and discovering a new place to visit – it also made me realise how important it is mentally to do things that force you to “live in the moment” more, and most importantly learn not to feel guilty or worried for taking time away from everyday life and do something a little bit spontaneous just for myself!”

“Physically I am fairly fearless, so this was about working on my confidence and quieting my inner critic. So while I was excited about the surfing and coasteering, I was anxious about sharing my concerns with strangers. However, this was so liberating and a fundamental stage of understanding and improving my resilience.”

“I attended Nicki's Resilient Women Adventure Weekend in Devon and it completely changed my mindset both from a personal and business perspective. Learning about your own strengths and weaknesses in an informal environment, with a group of likeminded women, and having great fun along the way was amazing. I came away from the weekend full of positive energy and techniques I implement in everyday situations. I couldn't recommend Nicki enough - she is an amazing coach, and you MUST give the adventure weekends a go!”
