BUILDING HUMAN CAPABILITY FOR COMPLEX SYSTEMS
What if you could lead behaviour change at scale — across your organisation, your supply chain, and your community?
...and what if you could measure the impact?
WILD partners with major infrastructure programmes, utilities, and public systems to build the human capability that makes technical delivery succeed.
The Challenge
The world's most complex challenges - climate adaptation, infrastructure renewal, public health, water security - are not technical problems alone. They require behaviour change at every level: leaders who can think differently, organisations that can learn and adapt, supply chains that move together, and communities that engage rather than resist.
Most programmes underestimate this. They invest in engineering, project management, and technical capability, then wonder why adoption stalls, why communities push back, why culture doesn't shift.
The missing capability isn't technical. It's human.
WILD builds the human capability that complex systems require
We work at the intersection of behavioural science, learning systems, and organisational transformation: grounded in 28 years of published, peer-reviewed research and proven in major infrastructure programmes across three continents.
Our methodology develops the mindset, agency, and adaptive capacity that enables people to lean into complexity rather than retreat from it, and, we can measure the shift.
Whether you're delivering a multi-billion pound infrastructure programme, transforming a utility's relationship with its customers, or building community resilience for long-term change, WILD has the methodology and the evidence.

Transformed compliance culture into learning-driven organization.
“In 2016 we appointed Jim Bentley to lead Hunter Water Corporation with a mandate to transform our performance and customer experience. One of the most significant contributions to the measurable behaviour change and operational performance improvement we achieved – with staff, partners and customers - was Professor Crick’s thought leadership based on the science of Learning Power.
A compliance focused organisation which had forgotten how to learn became curious about what we could achieve and optimistic about the future we could build with our community.”
~ Terry Lawler AO, former Chairman Hunter Water Corporation

Equipping staff to lead behaviour change
“Faced with significant water demand reduction challenges we knew that we needed to start the behaviour change journey with our own people. WILD’s learning power approach has been instrumental in equipping our staff with the belief and future thinking skills to learn with our customers as we change our water use behaviour.”
~ Bob Taylor, CEO, Portsmouth Water

Self-discovery strengthened team collaboration.
“The work completed with the team at Wild Learning has been eye-opening. I have not only learnt more about myself, but also evaluated where and what I would like to do in the future. During the sessions I was made to feel comfortable so that I could be honest about my thoughts as well as myself, something that can be difficult to do in a work setting.
Working through the learning power process caused me to highlight areas of my thinking which I had not considered previously. These areas also were comparable to how I was feeling in my work life at the time. After this realisation, it allowed me to act to ‘improve’ and correct some of the ‘weaker’ areas such as my collaboration and belonging with my team.
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the sessions as well as getting to know the team from Wild Learning. I have learnt a lot of information which I maybe wouldn’t have searched for without the sessions, however I can now use these new skills in the future.”
~ William Afflick, The Very Group

Profound personal and professional growth.
“Going into this journey, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. I consider myself a life long learner and was excited to try something new. From session 1 to session 7, I feel that I have grown so much not only professionally, but personally. I am so thankful for this experience and journey.”

Self-awareness transformed workplace performance.
“The work we have done with Wild Learning has been invaluable to my journey of self-reflection – through our coaching conversations I realised how both my strengths and limitations are manifested and used this knowledge to adapt to improve my performance at work.
The colleagues from Wild are also nothing but supportive, patient, and proficient at what they do, which has made the sessions so engaging.”~ Ellie McLaughin, The Very Group
