Ecosystem companies involved
About
Learning and Development (L&D) must go beyond content delivery — it should serve as a strategic function that directly supports business goals. This is why we are excited about the collaboration between Reaktor Ecosystem companies, Splended and Brightly, in partnering with Metso Academy to lead learning with data and build a strong learning organisation. Splended and Brightly conducted an assessment of the Academy’s processes and current state, which has been operating within Metso for about four years.
The goal
The partnership with Metso Academy focused on ensuring that learning is not just an isolated function but an integral part of business success. Together, Splended and Brightly aimed to:
- Lead learning with data – Using insights to make informed decisions about learning strategies.
- Identify key development areas – Understanding the areas that require focus.
- Strengthen Metso Academy’s role as a true business partner – Mapping out future development areas to best support business functions.
Solution
One of the key steps in this collaboration was assessing the current state of learning within the organisation. By collecting feedback from learning designers and their business partners, Splended and Brightly gained valuable insights into what works, what doesn’t, and where the biggest opportunities lie.
This data-driven approach helped the Academy to move beyond assumptions and focus on solutions that truly add value. Elina Korpela, a Business Strategist from Brightly, and Marjut Sadeharju, CEO of Splended, conducted a study using a survey and interviews to gather the insights. Kaisa Tuurinkoski and Kalle Koskiluoto described our collaboration:
"Good partnership with prompt responses Active approach and flexibility in conducting the survey."
Supporting the future of Metso Academy
For Metso Academy to thrive as a business partner, its role must evolve from being a content provider to a strategic enabler of business success. This means embedding learning into everyday work, making it actionable, and ensuring it contributes directly to company performance.
