An introduction to CAP Learning Solutions

Charlie Parish

I started CAP Learning Solutions because of my desire to support professional and behavioural development through promoting self-awareness and authenticity.

My focus on sustainable cultural development enables me to support those I work with to drive accountability and take responsibility for creating and informing the environment in which they operate. Preferring a natural coaching approach, I want people to feel comfortable and confident to explore their strengths, challenges and most importantly, ways to develop that work for them.

As an experienced facilitator, I believe that energy in learning is an important tool that helps to captivate and engage audiences. Striking a balance of a flexible approach, coupled with professionalism and knowledge, I strive to develop and deliver content that is accessible and impactful for all. A big part of this is creating environments where individuals can ‘bring their whole self’, enabling them to focus on their opportunities to learn, develop and grow.

With over 12 years experience in learning and development, I have operated in various organisations, which span a number of different sectors including The Civil Service, Housing, Financial Services and Legal. Across these different industries, I have facilitated the development of individuals at all stages of their career; from individual contributors through to Executive Team members. This includes working with graduates/early talent to enhance their core business skills, providing new and existing managers with the key tools they need to be successful in their roles, and creating the space for senior leaders to reflect on the way in which they enable their teams to thrive, in line with the achievement of strategic objectives.
