"Actually 90% of the change you're trying to create comes through systemic changes to the environment rather than training." - Charlie Kneen

Charlie Kneen is the founder of Solvd Together, a learning and development transformation consultancy that reimagines how global brands approach their people strategy. Formerly the L&D lead at BP in the UK, Charlie brings together expertise in marketing, coaching, leadership, and human-centred design.

Charlie dives deep into why traditional corporate training feels like expensive theatre that no one enjoys. He explores how most L&D departments have become order-taking functions, churning out compliance training and three-day courses that people forget immediately. He shares real examples from his work with major companies like Heathrow Airport and shipping firms. Charlie uncovers the systemic issues that prevent real learning and behaviour change, and explores everything from the psychology of how people actually learn to practical strategies for transforming L&D from within organisations.

If you're tired of engagement surveys and hoping for the best, this episode offers tangible alternatives that focus on business performance rather than content delivery.

In this episode, you’ll hear about:

The broken model of corporate learning
Human-centred design in L&D
How to handle difficult conversations when research reveals uncomfortable truths about leadership and systems
Moving from order-takers to strategic partners
Using nudges and contextual cues to drive behaviour change without formal training
Setting up proper research methodologies with control groups to prove ROI and business impact
