Adeption is delighted to announce its selection to Training Industry’s 2O26 Leadership Training Watch List. This prestigious recognition from Training Industry, a leading research and information resource for corporate learning leaders, highlights Adeption’s role as an innovative, high-impact provider in the global leadership development marketplace.
Training Industry’s annual Top Training Companies™ lists recognize the best and most innovative providers across key sectors of the corporate learning marketplace. The Leadership Training Watch List highlights organizations that are shaping the future of leadership development through impactful programs, innovative methodologies and strong client outcomes.
Adeption Co-founder and CEO Carl Sanders-Edwards says this latest recognition reflects Adeption’s impactful approach to helping organisations develop adaptive, future-ready leaders at scale.
“We’re thrilled to be recognized for the work Adeption is doing globally with innovative organizations wanting to support their leaders to navigate the complex, adaptive challenges they’re facing today.
“Adeption exists to solve the ‘what works doesn’t scale, and what scales doesn’t work’ problem in leadership development. Our methodology makes leadership development immediately relevant to leaders and brings it into the flow of their daily work. At the same time, our AI-powered digital coaching platform makes development highly scalable, meaning it’s entirely possible to offer high-impact leadership development to every employee in the organization,” he says.
Key differentiators of Adeption’s approach
- Learning in the flow of work: Our Be Conscious, Be Curious, Be Better (B3) methodology shifts leadership development from a one-off event to a daily practice. During programs, leaders use their actual work challenges as the curriculum, ensuring development and ‘getting work done’ are the same activity.
- Growing adaptive mindsets: We focus on growing a leader’s mindset range and cognitive capacity to handle complexity. This ensures leaders develop their ability to respond effectively to a wide range of challenges – rather than just adding horizontal skills.
- Scalable, AI-enabled coaching: The Adeption platform acts as a digital leadership coach, using AI to provide personalized, just-in-time support. Our ‘pull-based’ model allows leaders to access specific leadership tools and peer insights precisely when they need them, and then experiment with new approaches.
- Measurable shifts: Grounded in the Kirkpatrick Phillips model, our measurement approach goes beyond completion rates to track real-world action taking, mindset growth, and tangible ROI – while providing organizations with unique and valuable insights.
Adeption was recently recognized alongside its clients Salesforce, Target, Murray–Darling Basin Authority and Sport New Zealand at the 2O25 Brandon Hall HCM Excellence Awards for Leadership Development.
