Shift: Moving to learning that drives performance
No matter what sector you work in, there are two words that will be at the forefront of senior leadership thinking: performance and productivity.
To an efficient,
And the journey could be easier than you think.
My name’s Andy Lancaster, a performance consultant who has led Learning and Development for over 30 years. In that time I’ve worked with global organisations, charities and L&D leaders to solve their most complex issues, move to a performance-based strategy while cutting costs, and create lasting, business-impacting change.
People development is my passion and through my work I have seen the positive transformational change that occurs when organisations create a culture of continuous learning and performance support for their employees. Implementing a performance based strategy might seem like a mountain to climb, but trust me to guide you to the summit – the view from from the top is always worth it!

“Practical and edgy like his trademark footwear, Andy grabs our attention while leading us safely into the future of learning and making an impact in the changing world of work.”
“There are few practitioners in the L&D space who have walked the talk like Andy. He has a wealth of experience, ideas, and stories to share and challenges all in L&D to consider what we’re doing to lead learning in our organisations.”
“Andy Lancaster sets out a bold, broad, and ambitious manifesto for the L&D profession, weaving together research, philosophy, art and science. Andy respectfully critiques the roots of our work, while offering a positive vision of the opportunities to come and models to reshape how we think about our L&D challenges.”
“As someone leading change in L&D and trying to drive shifts in how we do things, I’d recommend Andy’s book for anyone looking to redefine their organisation’s learning approach and philosophy to start enabling learning to happen in the flow of work to the focus on learning making a real impact on performance.”
“What practitioners and leaders will appreciate is that Andy isn’t advocating throwing the baby out with the bathwater but shows us how to build on our established skillsets; develop in new and emerging areas; and set our sights on truly impacting performance.”
“In a world of fast changing work landscapes, Andy shows how L&D can strategically align and integrate learning into work to drive performance.”
“Andy reminds us that performance is key in everything we do. (He) has crafted the way we mesh learning and performance in one supercharged effort.”
