“The end has come to dinosaur approaches to leadership development,” said Kulwant Bardh, chief executive officer of KNOLSKAPE.

“Latest research in Neurosciences is shedding new light on learning pathways.”

Bardh added that Knolskape recognised this trend eight years ago when embarking on the core belief of putting the learner in the centre and belief in “learning by doing” and “learning by experience” in a simulated environment.
