Approach
There are many reasons you might choose a learning partner, but the truth is the best partnerships are born from buying into a shared approach and shared values.
Here’s a taste of how and why we do what we do.
Personal x collective growth
We believe social learning experiences are not only the best way for individuals to learn human skills, but they are also an invaluable opportunity to help folks forge stronger working relationships in the distributed context.
-
Small groups (max 10 people) maximise engagement in the session, fostering greater trust and connection within the cohort, and radically improves the chances of your people actually applying what they’ve learned too. Check out Actionable’s report on this for more.
-
There is no algorithm for humanity - so the best way to explore and practice inherently human skills is with other humans - where meaningful empathy can be surfaced, and real world and relevant scenarios can be explored together.
-
A shared accountability within cohorts encourages consistent engagement and mutual support. We use collaborative homework as a tool to bring cohort members together outside of the session.
“I feel like it was the best programme of it’s kind I have ever had the chance to enrol in. I really enjoyed the sessions - but I loved the opportunity to bond with my colleagues.”
Aviraj Gohil, Retail Operations, Wild Cosmetics
Integrated + contextual
Programmes should not only fit in effortlessly with participants working lives, but the learning should be ritualised and part of the very fabric of work itself.
-
Each of our sessions is just one hour long - which not only means they aren’t too disruptive to the flow of work, but research also shows when delivered on a weekly or biweekly cadence, it is the most effective format for this type of programming. Check out Actionable’s report on this for more.
-
Our content library directly addresses the unique needs of people in fast-paced and distributed teams, with a focus on equipping them with the tools and frameworks hat make learning both practical and immediately applicable.
-
Each session equips your people with the structures and direction required to take what they’ve learned into practice - so they have what they need to graduate from learning, to applying, to changing behaviour.
“I really valued the focus on application. I’ve now made actionable changes to my working life which in a short period have already improved my experience of work.”
Matthew Brady, Senior Carbon Ratings Scientist, BeZero Carbon
Right tools = right outcomes
Learning isn't about theory vs practice, coaching vs training. It's about harnessing the full spectrum of tools in the most meaningful ways to impact mindsets and behaviours.
-
We strike the right balance between content led learning with group coaching - depending on the outcomes and audience. We’re able to build programmes that incorporate elements of both to keep it fresh and impactful.
-
Every session is facilitated by a certified coach who has been there and done it. They know what they’re teaching and the outcomes you’re looking for with significant depth and intimacy - and therefore will build trust and drive change with aplomb.
-
Our cohort based sessions are the foundations - but our digital learning platform is there for when our coaches can’t. With self guided learning resources and digital nudges (and a heap more to come in 2025), we’re there to support application in the day to day.
“Peerpod is wonderful. Our coach is fantastic at what he does - he is engaging and knowledgeable and creates a great learning environment. I have learnt a lot, so thank you!”
