AI has become the centre of the tech world. Stock prices have surged, valuations have exploded, and billions are being poured into companies promising to own the future of artificial intelligence. But beneath the excitement, something far less comfortable is forming. The AI bubble is real. And when it bursts, it will not be the companies people expect that come
I recently returned from Africa, and it completely reframed how I view the future of education. What I found was not a continent waiting to be saved, but one full of energy, ambition and innovation. Coastal cities that rival the French Riviera, entrepreneurs in Nairobi building cutting-edge tech companies, and lecture halls in Ghana filled with students eager to compete
We have long been trained as a species to learn in a straight line. Every notebook you have ever used, every outline, every list follows the same rigid, top‑to‑bottom structure. But did you ever stop to ask whether this approach actually serves how your brain works? The truth might unsettle everything you believe about effective thinking. Because your brain does
For decades, we have accepted traditional learning as the only way to develop skills: courses, modules, manuals, workshops and assessments. But what if the entire concept is built on an assumption that no longer fits the world we live in? Today, we can access almost any piece of information within seconds. Yet we continue to design learning as if people
Do you ever sit down to revise a subject and just freeze? The textbook feels too dense. The key points blur together. You are reading, but none of it seems to stick. It is frustrating and exhausting, especially when you genuinely want to get the grade. The good news is that there is a better way to revise. One that
What if your commute, your bath, or the 20 minutes before bed became the most productive learning time of your day? It is not just possible. It is proven. And your brain is already wired for it. We all know that feeling of guilt when a training PDF sits unread, or when our “to-learn” list keeps growing. But what if
Corporate training is quietly failing. If your learners are left to their own devices, 80% of them will never finish the training you give them. Most organisations don’t even realise this because 20% completion rates are often considered “normal” in enrolment-based corporate learning. That means the majority of your budget is being spent on content that delivers zero return. But
If you’re only producing training content in English, you’re ignoring 85% of your global opportunity. Let that sink in. Most training companies don’t realise how much they’re leaving on the table. Not because their training isn’t good, but because it’s only accessible to a small slice of the global workforce. And while the need for multilingual training has always been
You know the pain. You have a 200-page company manual, maybe some meeting recordings and an old slide deck. Someone on your team says, “We need onboarding training.” And just like that, you are staring down a week’s worth of copying, pasting, editing and hoping people actually read it. And the worst part? They don’t. Most company training is long,
Training materials are more than words on a screen. Research into learning design has shown that strong visuals increase recall, create context and make complex ideas easier to understand. Yet many organisations still rely on generic stock photography or staged images that bear little resemblance to their real workplace. The result is predictable. PowerPoint slides look the same as every
