Honeycomb Consulting Skills Training run regular webinars and workshops. These provide an open opportunity to experience some of our training content and benefit directly from the guidance of our MDs or senior trainers. However, we recognise that life is busy and attending in person isn’t always feasible, so we make the webinar recordings freely available. If you’d rather listen than watch, the audio can be accessed as a podcast through all major podcast apps instead. Just search ‘The Skilled Consultant’.
To explore how Honeycomb can support you to develop the skills of your team please visit our website - Honeycomb Consulting Skills Training - where you will find information and multiple ways to get in touch with us.
Honeycomb Founder & MD Deri Hughes provides a comprehensive framework for developing and implementing a Learning & Development (L&D) strategy, specifically tailored for consulting firms. The session demonstrates how a well-structured L&D strategy can drive business value by accelerating team development and increasing profitability.
The webinar breaks down L&D strategy into seven key components:
Learning Culture and Mindset: Creating a deliberate approach to how learning happens within your organisation, including aspects like learning ownership, approach to risk-taking, and measurement philosophy.
Learning Pathways: Defining the journey consultants take through their careers, including onboarding, role transitions, and development at key career stages.
Performance Processes: Implementing regular review systems and feedback mechanisms to track development and identify learning needs.
Technology and Data: Setting up appropriate systems to track learning progress and deliver content, from simple document management to full learning management systems.
Personal Learning Priorities: Combining learning pathways with performance feedback to create individualised development plans.
Learning Content and Delivery: Creating and delivering appropriate learning materials through various channels (live training, self-service, etc.).
Impact Measurement and Reporting: Tracking the effectiveness of learning initiatives through multiple levels - from participation to business results and ROI.
What you can expect from this webinar:
Understand how L&D strategy connects to business strategy and drives value
Learn a framework for assessing your current L&D capabilities
Gain practical insights for implementing improvements
Receive tools for measuring the impact of L&D initiatives

The session includes a self-assessment tool that helps organisations evaluate their current maturity level across each component and identify areas for improvement. This practical approach allows firms to create actionable plans for developing their L&D capabilities over time.
