Every organisation invests in training. Few achieve transformation. Courses get completed, certificates are awarded, and within weeks most of what was taught has quietly disappeared.

Most organisations talk about learning as if it were a product: a course, a platform, a certification. Yet the truth is simpler and harder.

As artificial intelligence reshapes the global economy, the question isn’t whether jobs will change, but how quickly people and organisations can adapt

As artificial intelligence transforms industries across the UK and beyond, the world of work is changing faster than most organisations can adapt.

We’ve spent millions digitising systems , yet pennies digitising people.

You can’t plug AI into a workforce that doesn’t understand how to use it.

Cutting costs has become the main priority for many companies, and artificial intelligence is often seen as the fastest way to do it. But AI is not a magic fix. You can reduce headcount, automate reports, and generate insights at speed, yet you will still need people who can read, question, and interpret the data.

Learning is not just about skills. It is how people absorb what a company stands for, how they make sense of decisions, and how they behave when no one is watching. It is how culture is lived. When learning becomes disconnected or purely transactional, culture begins to fracture.

Generative AI can surface information at speed and scale, but it can’t tell us what’s worth asking. The real differentiator for people is the ability to understand the shape of a problem, interrogate it from different angles, and then translate that into meaningful prompts.

Every organisation holds a deep reservoir of institutional knowledge: decades of expertise, customer insights, and brand heritage. Yet too often, this knowledge remains locked away in silos or forgotten in documents no one reads.

At Edify Collective, this is the problem we solve. We transform institutional wisdom into mobile-first, human-centred microlearning, knowledge liberated, organised, and delivered directly to employees, whenever and wherever they need it.

The result? Every decision, every customer interaction, and every innovation can be grounded in the company’s identity, consistently and at scale.

When we study winning teams, whether in business or in the crucible of an ocean race, we see a pattern: disciplined people, disciplined thought, and disciplined action. Greatness is never accidental. It is the by-product of behaviours repeated with relentless consistency.

In a world where change is constant, organisations can no longer rely on traditional training alone. Research shows that people forget up to 70% of new information within a week if it isn’t reinforced in practice. This is the so-called “forgetting curve” first identified by psychologist Hermann Ebbinghaus.

We all have days when it feels like we’re juggling a hundred things at once. Deadlines, meetings, personal commitments, urgent requests, all flying through the air at the same time. Drop one, and it’s game over… right?

In an AI-driven world, the most valuable skills aren’t digital, they’re human. The workplace is changing at speed. AI, automation, and digital transformation are reshaping industries , yet research shows technical skills have a shelf life of less than five years

Scroll any social feed and you will spot it, people tapping their phone screens, counting 5-4-3-2-1 and launching into action. That micro-ritual comes from broadcaster Mel Robbins, whose podcast routinely tops the charts by translating behavioural science into espresso-shot life hacks

GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro are changing more than waistlines. They’re chemically muting our appetites, our impulses, even our cravings This isn’t just about food. It’s about dopamine. Compulsion. Emotional reward loops. Desire.

Sarina Wiegman has taken the Lionesses from promise to podiums in record time, guiding England to Euro 2022 glory, a World Cup final in 2023 and now a third consecutive major final in 2025. Beyond the silverware, her approach offers a master‑class in the sort of people‑centred, future‑fit leadership. How did she do ti?

When you think about Brad Pitt and Formula 1, you might picture adrenalin, fuelled races, high-speed overtakes and futuristic engineering, but if you look closer, you’ll see something deeper, a masterclass in leadership and teamwork. (Don't worry you can keep reading, no spoilers alert).

The EU Artificial Intelligence Act is the world’s first horizontal law for AI. It entered into force on 1 August 2024 and introduces fines of up to €35 million or 7 % of global turnover for non-compliance.

In an era marked by budget constraints, political polarisation, and generational shifts in the workforce, organisations face a fundamental challenge: how to stay relevant, resilient, and ready for the future. The answer? Agile teams. Not as a buzzword, but as a cultural and strategic necessity.

Culture eats strategy for breakfast” or “Culture is what you do when nobody is looking”
We’ve all heard these quotes many times, but few ask the deeper question: What fuels culture in the first place?
