Learning designed for the speed and complexity of consulting
Develop the behaviours and skills that define great consulting
Our promise is impact: consultants who keep getting better, and clients who keep coming back to you. We are a team of learning designers, and what we love most is designing learning like no other, the kind that helps people think differently, build trust, and become the person their clients turn to first.
Two ways to grow brilliant consulting teams
We have been designing learning for more than two decades, and we chose to specialise in working with consultancies because, like you, we love solving complex problems. As a learning partner, we support our clients in two ways: immersive in-person training, and the Showing Up learning platform.
Immersive in-person training
We spent our first decade as a pure in-person training company, and being in the room is still at the heart of what we do. From high-energy 90-minute sessions to intense three-day events, they are unforgettable team experiences that accelerate confidence, capability and impact.
The Showing Up learning platform
The learning platform can become your whole learning ecosystem, or carry your classroom training into everyday work. Either way, it is built to give your team the very best learning that fits around the demands of client work: six learning tools, anytime, anywhere, ready the moment the work calls for them.
What makes the very best consulting teams?
Consulting is hard. You’re solving complex problems, earning trust, and delivering work that has to land. As consultants ourselves, we have always been fascinated by the teams who do all of that exceptionally well, and by what sets them apart. After frontline work and research with more than 11,000 consultants (and counting), we found our answer: the Nine Dimensions™. Everything we design, in person and on the platform, develops your team’s brilliance across all nine.
To date, we have helped 11,000+ consultants elevate their impact, build deeper trust with clients, and solve some of society’s most complex problems.
In the words of the clients we’ve been lucky to work with
This is simply the best money we have ever spent on people’s development. I’m not saying Benjamin and his team are miracle workers, but we witnessed employee confidence soar, their ability to communicate rise way beyond our expectations, and ultimately we had greater impact and value created. My advice is to work with Showing Up. You won’t regret it.
It wasn’t just the quality of the work that mattered, it was the way that they engaged every person at every level in our organisation. They were able to unite people behind a single vision, make the whole process engaging and, critically, deliver a standout framework at the end of it. This has been the best piece of work we’ve done as a team.
Showing Up have had a profound impact on the trajectory of our business. What we love about working with the team is how much they care. They’re positively obsessed about making the learning not just memorable (it really is learning like no other!), but it also having a direct and measurable impact on the results we achieve with our clients. They will always be our trusted learning partner.
The feedback from the session was genuinely glowing. Members of the team said it was the most compelling training session they’ve ever had! The team find Showing Up’s approach incredibly engaging and, most importantly, feel like you align with our culture and values, which makes the learning process highly actionable in the day to day.
We don’t have a large learning budget and so we adopted the Showing Up platform. What we love about the platform is that our team can access the right learning at the right time. It’s helped our junior consultants show up more composed, capable, and compelling in front of clients, and it’s helped our senior consultants elevate their commercial performance. And they’ve all genuinely loved the learning.
The team from Showing Up were the perfect match in helping us to transform our business. They not only developed the very best commercial training for our client-facing team, they also supported us to implement a set of leadership values and behaviours that enable everyone across our business to do their best work and reach their greatest potential. They have been a truly trusted learning partner to us.
Showing Up have invested the time to understand deeply what our vision and strategy is, and have worked relentlessly and very effectively to help us to succeed in both. Throughout, they have been an absolute pleasure to work with, showing the highest levels of integrity and authenticity. Showing Up have been, and will continue to be, a true partner to us.
The biggest difference was helping people realise that it is okay to take a step back, and that sometimes you have to move slower to go fast. Critical conversations and non-violent communication have enabled us to better support each other, and ultimately to deliver better outcomes for the children and families we are here to support.
Great learning should create a better future
We believe that every person deserves the opportunity to access great learning that enables them to reach their full potential. For every person we train, whether in person or on the platform, The Showing Up Foundation funds at least one free scholarship for a young person facing barriers to entering the workforce. Our goal is to support at least one million young people by 2035.
Every client supports this mission simply by working with Showing Up. Your training supports their places, and we certify your contribution for your B Corp, ESG and social value reporting. And if you would like to do even more, your people can work with us (at no charge to you) to create video learning that becomes part of the Foundation’s free library.
1,000,000 young people by 2035, at least one scholarship for every person we train
