One-off comments rarely shift behaviour. This post shows how to apply neuroscience to your team’s feedback loops, so coaching sticks, skills grow and time isn’t wasted repeating the same lessons.

Passive lectures drain budgets and leave skills unused. This post shows how simple, brain smart tweaks like scenario drills and quick recall quizzes lock in knowledge and turn training time into productivity and profit.

A new hire’s first seven days set the tone for everything that follows. Learn how clear pre boarding, micro learning and daily reflection can halve time to productivity, lift engagement and protect revenue in fast growing teams.

Hiring a full time learning leader is costly and risky for a small firm. Learn how a subscription based fractional L&D model delivers strategic design, neuroscience driven programs and measurable ROI while keeping cash burn lean.

Training systems work best when they are designed before growth creates pressure. Scalable training means fewer repeated explanations, faster onboarding, and smoother transitions.

Overwhelmed by the idea of fixing your company’s training? You are not alone. Here’s a clear, practical starting point for building an effective training system, without the overwhelm.

Tribal knowledge feels efficient in a small team, but it quickly becomes a bottleneck as your company grows. Here’s why relying on memory is holding you back.

Most training doesn’t fail because the content is bad. It fails because there’s no system around it. In this post, we unpack why training breaks down in fast-growing businesses and what can be done to fix it without hiring a full-time L&D team.

If your team cannot remember the training, it is not working. This post unpacks the five biggest reasons staff forget what they learn and what you can do to fix it using the science of learning.

Most training fails not because of poor content, but because staff forget it. Discover the hidden cost of training that does not stick, and how neuroscience can help your business reclaim lost value through better retention.

Cognitive Load Theory explains why most training fails. The brain can only take in so much at once. This article explores how poor training design overwhelms learners, damages retention, and leads to costly mistakes. Learn how to structure your training in a way that respects the brain’s limits and actually sticks.

Poor training is one of the most expensive problems in business, not because of the upfront cost, but because of what happens when people forget it. This article explores the hidden costs of ineffective training, including lost productivity, higher staff turnover, and long-term damage to organisational culture. It outlines why most training fails and what businesses need to do differently to drive real performance and return on investment.

Most corporate training fails to deliver long-term results because it doesn’t align with how the brain learns. This post explores three neuroscience-backed strategies that dramatically improve training outcomes: active learning, emotional engagement, and spaced repetition with retrieval practice. Discover how these evidence-based approaches enhance memory retention, boost productivity, and deliver a stronger return on investment - all by designing training that works with the brain, not against it.

Most corporate training is designed for convenience, not retention. But your brain doesn’t build strength from cramming. It builds strength from reps. This post unpacks the neuroscience of spaced repetition, and why real learning, like fitness, only happens with structured, repeated effort.

Why do we forget so much of what we learn?
This post breaks down the brain’s bandwidth problem and how Cognitive Load Theory explains why learning feels so hard sometimes — and what we can do to fix it.
Neuroscience shows us that better design equals better memory.

Lectures. Slide decks. Videos.
They look like learning, but they don’t rewire the brain.

Neuroscience shows that passive learning barely registers in memory.
Active learning? It fires up multiple brain systems, releases dopamine, and makes learning stick.

In this post, I break down the science behind why we forget so much…
and how to flip the switch with strategies the brain actually responds to.

Read the full breakdown and rewire how you learn:
Stop Absorbing, Start Rewiring

Understanding how your brain learns is the key to better memory, focus, and skill-building. This post explores four powerful brain regions — the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, amygdala, and attention network — and how to harness them to learn smarter, not harder.

Stress doesn’t just affect your mood — it rewires your brain in ways that make learning harder. This post explores the neuroscience behind stress and memory, and shares simple, science-backed strategies to stay calm, focused, and ready to learn.

Have you ever walked into a room, with the intention of grabbing something only to completely forget why you’re there? Or tried learning something new, only to feel mentally drained before you even start? That’s not just forgetfulness or fatigue - it’s cognitive overload.
