“Working with Sporting Edge has really brought our training to life and given us some great nuggets that hook people to come and learn more."

Shirley Branagh - Training and Business Development Director, Capita

The Challenge

 

Capita, a global leader in consulting, digital services, and software, sought to enhance its internal management learning offering. The aim was to launch a new programme featuring inspirational and accessible digital content to engage Capita’s global management community and spark fresh thinking aligned with its updated leadership priorities.

The Solution

To achieve this, Capita partnered with Sporting Edge to leverage our exclusive library of performance insights from world-class thinkers and performers. Each lesson was carefully mapped to Capita’s values, management competency framework, and leadership priorities, ensuring direct relevance to the real-world challenges faced by their managers. The content was seamlessly integrated into Capita’s learning management system (LMS) and virtual learning hubs, providing easy global access for learners across the organisation.

The Impact

 

Working with Sporting Edge has really brought our training to life and given us some great nuggets that hook people to come and learn more. There is a huge amount of diversity and in a world where celebrities play such a big part it is great to be able to tap into this knowledge and show that they too are human and face similar challenges.

The benefits of the Sporting Edge content is that they are bite-sized and therefore can be used in a variety of ways; either in the teaser campaigns (before and during), or as small sound bites within the digital learning we design. The ease of integration into our own platforms really makes it simple. The content supports a really broad audience from individual contributors through to our most senior leaders. The diversity in content means there is something for everybody no matter of their background they will be able to relate to it.

The feedback we have had to date has been very positive with people enjoying the variety of subjects covered by these insights. And of course the range is not isolated to sports – there is content from Matthew Pinsent, British rower to Steve Martin, a behavioural scientist to Andrew Sharpe, an accomplished military leader, strategist and educationalist and everything in between.
