Why working with us

Training that changes how your team works

Good people leave. The ones who stay lose energy. The market moves and your team can't keep up. AI is reshaping entire industries and teams that don't adapt get left behind. We don't fix this with a motivational speech. We fix it with training that changes how your team works.

When your team gets the right training:

Your team starts moving again.

New ideas, faster decisions, real momentum.

Leaders who actually lead.

Confidence that comes from practice, not slides.

Performance becomes visible.

Not on a dashboard. In the work.

AI becomes a tool, not a threat.

Your team learns to work with it, not fear it.

We are a collective of entrepreneurs and experts who love to simplify difficult concepts.

We love to keep the energy high and the theory short. Our clients often say our courses are "hard to forget". Think training has to be boring to work? We're here to prove that wrong.

Programs that rewire how teams work

Build a custom plan β†’
Team & Connection

Offsites and Team Building

Get your team off autopilot and into the same room, solving, building, and laughing together. No trust falls. No awkward icebreakers.

  • Real challenges designed around your team dynamics
  • Activities that surface how your team actually communicates
  • Experiences people talk about months later
Innovation

From Idea to Action

Turn scattered ideas into real projects with structure, speed, and momentum. No more brainstorms that lead nowhere.

  • Rapid prototyping and idea validation frameworks
  • Go-to-market planning in real time
  • Kill the "we should do something about this" loop
AI for Business

Stop Talking About AI. Start Using It.

Your competitors already are. We train your team to use AI where it actually matters, not as a gimmick, but as a daily advantage.

  • AI for marketing: content, strategy, research
  • AI for sales: outreach, pipeline, personalization
  • AI for operations: automate the boring stuff
  • From "I should learn this" to "I use this every day"
Innovation Culture

Make Innovation a Habit, Not a Slogan

Build a team that generates ideas without being asked, and an organization that knows what to do with them.

  • Tools to challenge assumptions without chaos
  • Frameworks for testing ideas fast and cheap
  • Turn "we've always done it this way" into "what if we tried this"
Leadership

Lead People, Not Stereotypes

Millennials, Gen Z, Boomers, labels don't lead teams. Understanding does. Build leaders who connect across generations without the cringe.

  • Cross-generational communication styles
  • Leadership habits that work for every age group
  • Managing motivation when one size never fits all
Communication & Presence

Say It So People Listen

Most presentations are forgotten before the next coffee break. We train your team to communicate with clarity, confidence, and zero filler.

  • Structure talks that land, from boardrooms to all-hands
  • Voice, body language, and presence without the theater
  • Practice rounds with real feedback, not polite applause
Sales & Persuasion

Sell Like a Human

Ditch the scripts. Train your team to listen better, pitch sharper, and close without feeling sleazy.

  • Conversational selling frameworks
  • Objection handling through practice, not theory
  • Real role-plays with real scenarios from your pipeline

Our story

Ciao, I'm Alessia, the founder of The Ideas Lab Group. πŸ‘‹

Before becoming a trainer, I've sat through more training sessions than I can remember. Most of them were boring. Some were painful. A few made me question my career choices.

Maybe I have a short attention span. Maybe I just don't like watching someone read 100 slides out loud. Either way, I always thought the same thing: there has to be a better way.

So we built one.

We make people learn by doing, not by sitting still. We simplify complex topics instead of hiding behind jargon. And we believe that if your team is having fun, they're actually learning.

Fit check Should we work together?

Are we a good match for you?

We're not for everyone. Let's find out if we match.

We click if:

  • You believe growing people grows the business.
  • You care about results, not certificates.
  • You want people who think, not just execute.
  • Learning is a culture, not a calendar event.

We don't click if:

  • You think people are "resources" on a spreadsheet.
  • Boring decks are your idea of training.
  • Attendance is the only KPI that matters.
  • Team building means one awkward dinner a year.

Who we are

The team that makes it happen.

A team of different minds with one shared belief: if your audience is bored, it's your fault, not theirs.

Co-founder

Alessia has lived and worked across Italy, Malta, Indonesia, and Singapore, launching projects with startups and large organizations in marketing, product, operations, and editorial.

She co-founded Explosive Brains, The Ideas Lab, and Dealflo. Somewhere along the way, she sat through one too many terrible presentations and decided to spend her career making sure nobody else has to.

On weekends, you'll probably find her on top of whatever mountain is nearby.

Co-founder

Engineer. Data nerd. Almost a decade working with numbers at companies like Twitter, Gucci, and General Assembly.

Founder of Kiwi Blu. But the biggest lesson from all those years wasn't technical. It was this: the best data in the world means nothing if your presentation makes people reach for their phone. So he dedicated himself to the other side, making the message land.

On weekends, you'll find him either slow-cooking an Asian recipe that takes longer than the workday or swing dancing like it's 1932.
