LEARNING SPRINTS

What is a Learning Sprint?

A Learning Sprint is a short, structured development program (typically 4–8 weeks) where participants focus on one theme that directly impacts their business and leadership effectiveness.

Focused learning. Practical outcomes. Immediate impact.

Traditional training often fails because it’s too long, too abstract or too disconnected from real business challenges. That’s why Shifft created Learning Sprints — short, intensive programs that help business owners, executives and teams build capability in key areas and apply it straight away.

Each Sprint runs over a focused timeframe, blending live workshops, peer learning, accountability and practical tools. They’re designed to fit into your busy schedule while delivering measurable improvements in performance.
