Your Embedded Partner in Learning & Development
We partner with organizations as an extension of their internal teams, designing, delivering, and continuously evolving learning experiences that drive real performance. By combining live training, cutting-edge technology, and in-depth assessments, we create custom learning plans aligned to both individual growth and business goals.
Our programs span Own The Room® communication training, as well as sales and leadership development. Rather than one-size-fits-all workshops, we take ownership of your learning ecosystem, ensuring skills development is relevant, measurable, and immediately applicable over time.
Trusted by Fortune 1000 companies around the world, LifeHikes is known for highly interactive training that sticks. Our world-class coaches inspire participation and reinforce learning to drive lasting behavior change.
Our partnership model is flexible by design, supporting teams in person, virtually, or in hybrid environments, and from targeted engagements to long-term programs. Through 1:1 coaching, practice labs, AI-powered learning, and ongoing reinforcement, we deliver a fully managed learning experience, so your team can focus on what matters most.
Methodology
Let’s be honest - any company can teach skills. What makes learning actually stick is how those skills are taught.
With over 25 years of experience, LifeHikes® delivers learning through a uniquely experiential approach. Our proprietary, highly interactive methodology puts participants in constant motion, practicing real techniques, receiving meaningful feedback, and refining their skills in the moment.
Instead of passive sessions, every learning journey is designed to keep people engaged, challenged, and applying what they learn as they go. That’s what makes our training memorable and effective.
Key elements of our methodology include:
- Do/Learn/Do: We try concepts first before any instruction. Try it your way then add our techniques so that you can see and feel the difference once applied.
- Team-Based: Learning in community provides heightened engagement, elicits a greater sense of joy, and promotes shared responsibility for business outcomes. That’s why all trainings are done live, instructor-led, and with a team.
- Video Recording and Playback: Until you see yourself as others do you truly don't know how you're landing.
- Spiraling Content: We circle back to every technique and connect them to each new one introduced so that the learning becomes embedded through repeated application.
- Feedback Culture: We show you how to get feedback, but we also teach you how to give it. Being taught something is valuable, but when you can become the teacher, it truly drives the learning home.
