- Tailored to your teams
- In-person and online
What training will organisations need in 2027?
In 2027, the strongest demand for corporate training is in six areas: practical AI skills for employees, stronger first-line managers, psychological safety, fair and respectful workplaces, leading multigenerational and cross-cultural teams, and sustainable performance.
Four forces are driving this: AI moving into everyday work, hybrid working becoming permanent, four generations working side by side, and regulation shifting from awareness to prevention. Organisations that build leadership and culture capability now will feel the benefit through 2028 and beyond.
London Intercultural Academy (LIA) designs and delivers CPD-certified programmes in each of these areas for organisations across Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
The six training priorities for 2027
Choose the priorities that matter to your organisation. We will put the matching programmes into your 2027 plan, ready to send to our team for a tailored proposal.
AI in everyday work
Employees need practical, safe AI skills, and organisations need staff who can spot AI-enabled scams and handle data correctly. The EU AI Act has required providers and deployers of AI systems to ensure AI literacy among their staff since February 2025.
Recommended programmes
Stronger first-line managers
Managers are where strategy succeeds or fails. New managers need to delegate, give feedback and hold people accountable from day one, not after years of trial and error.
Recommended programmes
Psychological safety and speak-up
Teams that feel safe to speak up surface mistakes sooner and innovate faster. Leaders need the skills to invite challenge and to handle difficult conversations well.
Recommended programmes
Fair, respectful workplaces
In the UK, employers have had a legal duty to take reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment since October 2024. EU member states must apply the Pay Transparency Directive from June 2026. Both raise the bar for training that changes behaviour.
Recommended programmes
Multigenerational and cross-cultural teams
Different expectations about communication, feedback and authority create friction unless leaders actively bridge them. Inclusive, culturally intelligent leadership is a core 2027 skill.
Recommended programmes
Sustainable performance
Emotional intelligence, stress management and wellbeing practices help people sustain performance through change, without losing your best people to exhaustion.
