Here's why you should join this event

Get inspired by 9 fast-paced sessions on learning strategies from organisations like Rituals and Booking.com

Gain practical perspectives on performance, leadership, and the future of L&D

Start meaningful conversations with peers shaping next year’s people strategies

Learning & development is at a turning point. AI is reshaping skills faster than organisations can keep up. Engagement is harder to sustain. And L&D leaders are being asked to drive real business impact - not just deliver training.

That's why we're kicking off 2026 by hosting Offbeat Sparks - an in-person event that brings together L&D and HR leaders to rethink how learning drives performance in 2026.

Join us on January 23rd, 17:30-20:00, to get inspired, learn from experts and network with industry peers.

What our satisfied attendees say

We can learn from human- centered design thinking. 5-6 qualitative interviews are enough to map out most of the challenges your audience is facing.

Sara Guagini-Wilbers

“ Learning is a skill to be learned and learned quicker than ever before. Companies need to teach the right attitude and behaviors but also design upskilling to make knowledge transfer as impactful as possible for career mobility in 2024. "

Thomas Schipperen

“ AI mentors allow L&D teams to support learners in a way that previously only human coaches could do.We’re talking about very personalized individual feedback that impacts learners and brings them to a higher level. “

Clemens Lechner

Head of Learning Technology Innovation

“ In a landscape characterized by evolving innovation, analytical skills enable tech professionals to dissect intricate problems, derive insights from vast data sets, and integrate new technologies. ”

Ian Strik

Analytical Thinking Power Skill Owner

“ One of the biggest shifts within the next couple of years is the career development that will move our employees forward in a more tailored way and reduce the need for external recruitments. “

Thomas Eklöf

Founder of AI for HR

“ Working in logistics offers a dynamic work environment where logistics leaders play a key role in the development of an organization. A good leader does not only focus on the optimisation of the processes but also on the team's personal growth, motivating collaboration and encouraging the team to achieve the best possible result.“

Laura van Hal

Organizational Development Manager, Viterra Chartering

“ AI will help transform the traditional career ladder into a career lattice, generating more pathways for internal mobility, development, and engagement. So, businesses must empower employees to learn soft skills and behavioral skills that can enhance their current positions and prepare them for future roles.“

Alex Rylance

Head of Human Resources UK, Netcompany

“ We see an increased appetite for working towards a skills-based organization from our clients and intentional learning could play a significant role in up-or reskilling the workforce. ”
