About Evoloshen Academy

Evoloshen Academy offers training and development tools created from the consulting and customized work created and delivered to Evoloshen’s international client companies. Through the Evoloshen Academy we offer training to support individuals within organisations to increase employee engagement, build trust, and spread joy in the workplace.

We transform business through culture by embodying the philosophy of the great scientist and futurist, Buckminster Fuller who said: “You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.”

We provide programs that meet a variety of needs – from the more informal Joy Ambassador program to more the substantive courses on Igniting your Trust Factor to the most rigorous of our training offerings, the International Cultural Engagement Specialist ™ Certification.

2020 has had a profound impact on the world. While a lot of uncertainty remains, people are bringing a broader set of motivations into their work. They are seeking a greater sense of connection and purpose, and the opportunity to make a larger contribution to the world through their work.

Creating a culture that can support these inspirational interests requires that every organization needs some rebuilding. And, any of these training programs can help you make a meaningful contribution to rebuild the culture within your team and your company.

Take a course, get involved, and become committed to a higher level of workplace performance that will pay off. Bringing joy to the workplace is our mission and we believe it will be yours when you see the ROI both personally and professionally.
