Starting from scratch

With a dispersed workforce spread across London and Glasgow, LendInvest faced a challenge in providing its employees with the training and resources they needed, when they needed them, as well as encouraging self-driven learning and continuous development.

Prior to discovering Thrive, LendInvest had no structured solution in place for their teams to develop new skills. As a result, there was a lack of access to relevant information and content, which culminated in a lack of development within teams.

A social-first solution

LendInvest was initially drawn to Thrive’s modern UX, but it was the rich content offering, social-first approach and seamless integration with Slack that sealed the deal for them.

With Thrive, LendInvest is able to foster a culture of self-directed learning and engagement among its employees. The platform's social learning features allow them to nurture a collaborative environment where employees and subject-matter experts can share their knowledge across the business. Learners have adapted to social learning so quickly that the team has already seen an uptick in user generated content, forming over 40% of their platform.

Creating a self-led learning culture

With Thrive, everything is in one place and easily searchable, allowing the team to find the answers they need exactly when they need them. As they can also track and ensure compliance, LendInvest’s Compliance Manager and Legal team use Thrive to share policies and documents. Jessica Tang, Legal Council, commented: “Since moving to Thrive, we’ve definitely become more efficient as a team, allowing us to add value to the business where it matters most.”

LendInvest's employees also benefit from improved onboarding, making it easy for new starters to soak up induction materials and tasks they need regardless of where they’re working.

The results speak for themselves:

• 100% user coverage
• 21,000 content views
• 116,900 points and achievements
