Growing your future workforce
Countless factors are fundamentally changing the Australian workplace: skills shortages, digital transformation, disrupted business models, changing worker expectations. Add into the mix the ever-evolving coronavirus challenges and we have an ongoing lesson in agile talent management.
If your business is feeling the squeeze, you are not alone. In a compacted labor market, organisations are struggling to adapt in order to drive their businesses forward. We need to work together to support a dynamic workforce that is able to constantly reskill, upskill and remain relevant. Traditional recruitment, education, talent management and HR models are not always able to support the needs of modern organisations. Enter Academy Xi.

Who we've worked with
What our clients say
“Academy Xi is my learning partner not my learning provider”
Clare Di Leva
Talent and Development Leader
In my former role as Head of Learning and Development at QBE Insurance, I partnered with Academy Xi to support the business to invest in reskilling for the future. Academy Xi is my learning partner not my learning provider. They bring expertise, knowledge and skilled facilitators and then collaborate to ensure solutions resonate and feel like internal offerings as opposed to off the shelf external products. Today, I value having the Academy Xi team in my network and look forward to continuing to work with them.
“a level of learning and enjoyment rarely seen”
Natalie Falzon
Innovation Manager
Academy Xi bring an energy and passion to education that creates a level of learning and enjoyment rarely seen. They played an integral role in our Tech4Good Challenge Program - providing instructions, content development and class management to train our non-profit partners in Service Design, Product Management and User Experience Design. I would highly recommend Academy Xi as a training and development partner if you are looking for an industry-leading experience.
“a highly rewarding experience”
Carmelina Senese
Director Customer Experience
Working with Academy Xi has been a highly rewarding experience. We worked closely with the Xi team as our strategic design partner, to co-design a customer-centric Way of Working framework, set of supporting capabilities and a guidebook containing tools and templates. We've worked innovatively to test and validate these through a real-life on the job occupational challenge which validated the practicality and ease of use of the artefacts developed. Academy Xi performed deep research insights for the organisation which contributed hugely to the program's success.
“great team building exercise”
Rabbani Karim
Assistant Director
The Intro to Human-Centred Design course was a great team building exercise. A lot of interesting concepts were covered. My team also got the opportunity to collaborate with participants from other divisions on problems specific to our organisation (as opposed to hypothetical problems). Every participant got something useful out of the day.
