Build the L&D Team Your Business Deserves

You know what your business needs: a learning and development team that doesn't just deliver training but drives performance.

You need a team that understands the strategy, speaks the language of business and delivers learning that changes behaviour, not just ticks boxes.

But here’s the challenge: most L&D teams aren’t built that way by default.

They’re made up of brilliant, hard-working professionals, often promoted for their delivery expertise, but rarely developed to consult, influence or measure learning at a strategic level.

That’s not their fault. It’s the system they’ve grown up in. And it’s time to change it.

Your Organisation Deserves More Than ‘Trainers’

It deserves capability builders. Consultants. Influencers. Strategists.

The kind of team that knows how to say no to training requests – and yes to business outcomes.

It needs a team that can translate challenges into learning solutions that make a measurable difference. A team that understands how learning links to culture, talent and performance.

That kind of team doesn’t just appear. It’s built with intention.

That’s where the TwentyOne Leadership L&D Academy comes in.

Developing Capability at Every Level

The L&D Academy is not just for individual leaders; it’s a development ecosystem for entire L&D functions. We work with Heads of L&D, Learning Managers and their teams to:

• Build a shared language and strategy around learning

• Develop critical skills in consulting, influencing and evaluation

• Understand brain-friendly learning design and delivery

• Identify and close skills gaps across the team

• Align team capability with business goals and growth

Whether you’ve got a team of one or ten, the Academy offers structure, challenge and support tailored to your unique context.

From Reactive to Strategic

Most L&D teams spend too much time reacting, delivering requests, building courses or fixing problems they didn’t create.

The L&D Academy helps you flip that.

You become proactive. You get clear on your team’s purpose, priorities and value. You start shaping strategy, not just responding to it. And your stakeholders start to notice.

Brain-Friendly, Business-Focused

One of the Academy’s core principles is brain-friendly learning because if your own team doesn’t learn well, how can you expect others to?

We embed these principles into everything we do. It’s engaging, sticky and practical. And it shows your team what great learning feels like so they can replicate it in your organisation.

Build the Team That Leads, Not Just Delivers

If you want more from your L&D function, more impact, more alignment, more credibility, start with your people.

Develop their mindset, their skills and their confidence.
