our approach

 

 

our human-centred learning approach transforms people, teams and organisations

At Alkimia, we believe in learning that transforms.

That’s why it’s our mission to challenge your learners’ thinking, inspire their creativity and support their learning experiences. We do this using our unique learner-centred and systemic approach that is strengths-based, experiential, participatory and playful.

what is transformative learning?

Transformative learning facilitates learners to become better versions of themselves.

It invites them to challenge and change their assumptions, values, behaviours and relationships so they can take control of their learning experience. This process lets the human spirit flourish so individuals can deliver more value to teams, organisations and the world.

 

 

how is our approach different?

 
 
  • While other consultants recommend one solution upfront, we work with you to test multiple pathways. Our approach helps you create solutions that are resilient in complex environments.

 
 
  • Stop the tyranny of PowerPoint! We package learning in a way that uses experiential methods to unlock your learners’ imaginations.

 
 
  • We obsessively hone in on your learners, so we understand what they need to perform at their best. It is our job to identify relevant content and deliver it in a way that resonates with them.

 
 
 
  • We don’t work with clients that simply want to tick the box, treat employees as one-dimensional or do what’s always been done. We help our clients to design learning that matters.

 
 
  • While other consultants focus on what is missing, we focus on growing your strengths and putting them together in new and innovative ways.

 
 
  • Given the complexity of our learners’ problems, we move away from static, linear and compliance-driven training and design learning experiences that are resilient, dynamic and based on opportunity.

 
 
 
  • Every client is different, and every learning opportunity requires a different solution. We work with you to create learning experiences that meet learners where they are, provide it just in time and design it just for them.

 
 
  • We avoid a top-down, expert-driven approach that walks in with the solution and walks away when it’s time to implement. Instead, we roll up our sleeves and co-create with you.

 
 
  • Those in charge of leading the learning of others can be frustrated by transactional relationships based on a list of requests. We create partnerships focused on the purpose behind the learning and achieve performance outcomes together.
