Learning and development, for companies of 50 to 2,500.

You do not feel a missing department. You feel one of these.

Open the one that is yours. It says what happens next, what Thrive carries, and what it costs.

What all three have in common

A company of ten thousand hires a department for this. You have the same jobs and nobody to give them to.

Thrive is that department, rented by the month. People who have held the job teach. Agents do the enrolling, the coaching between sessions, and the reporting. The whole company is on one price, from $399 a month, printed on the pricing page.

Next public cohort of Fundamentals of Leading People starts January 11, 2027. 25 seats, $1,000 each. You work with the founder.

From the founder

Growing companies knew training mattered. They could not get what the big companies had.

I spent twenty-five years building training for Fortune 1000 companies and kept meeting the same operator: fifty to twenty-five hundred people, growing, losing good ones, promoting people into jobs nobody had prepared them for. They did not need an LMS. They needed the function.

Thrive is that function. Facilitators who have done the job, a library that grows with what your people ask for, and agents that handle the parts that used to need a department. You will work directly with me.

A first call that happens the moment you arrive.

ARIA is a consultant. She asks who is involved and what should change, recommends the closest starting point, quotes the real price, and hands you to a person when you want one. This is a test conversation from September 2, 2026, lightly trimmed.

Prefer a person? Say so in the conversation and the team follows up.

The My programs page for Fundamentals of Leading People in week 2 of 4, Leading Individuals: the week’s live session, Taylor’s note on what is next and the button that opens it, the five weeks, with how much of each open week is complete, and the top of This week, in order, beside the certificate card

The week, in one place.

Your program, the week you are in, how much of each open week is done, and what is next, with Taylor one click away.

The live workshops page inside the platform: 16 topics, each a 2-hour live session, and the sessions coming up, each with its date, its time, its length, the places open and a link to see the session

Live workshops, on the calendar.

Sixteen topics, two hours each, twenty-five seats, every one included.

A Coach Taylor conversation: the learner asks for their saved lesson and gets both as links, then asks to be booked into a workshop and the coach holds the booking on a card with Yes, go ahead and No, leave it

Coach Taylor, between sessions.

Ask it what the week is about and where you stand, and it answers from your program.

01 and 02: Recorded in the running platform on November 10, 2026, as the demonstration learner, against the staging data set. 03: Recorded in the running platform on September 7, 2026, as the demonstration learner. Not a mockup, not a render, not a design file.

What is not in these screens: a reminder before a session. Coach Taylor answers when someone asks it something; it does not yet reach out on a schedule. That one is on the roadmap.

How the platform works

Who teaches

Held the job. Not studied it.

Content is the easy part to buy. A dozen vendors will sell you a library this afternoon. What none of them sells is the person who has already done the job, live, for two hours, watching your people practice it.

Every Thrive session is led by someone who has done the work they are teaching: run a shift, carried a quota, managed a team through a change, sat across from the person who needed the hard conversation. They bring the real version of the problem into the room, and the practice is done on your people’s actual work, not on a case study.

Sessions are small enough that a facilitator can watch each person practice and coach the delivery. Between sessions, Coach Taylor keeps the thread going.

Coming up

Real dates. Real seats.

Workshop seats are included for every employee at every band, with no per-seat charge. Program seats are priced outside the platform band: Fundamentals of Leading People is $1,000 per seat. Selling Essentials is $1,000 per participant (in a public cohort). New Professionals and private cohorts are quoted with the dates. Start the platform or .

Pricing

One flat price for the whole organization.

The band is set by how many people you employ, and that is the only thing it sets. Nothing is metered, nothing is held back for a higher band, and adding people inside your band costs nothing.

This table has no column for what is included, because the answer does not change by band: live workshops, all one hundred thirty-five courses across five libraries with fifty-six of those free in the compliance library, Coach Taylor for every learner, Morgan for setup, and the reporting. Annual billing is ten months charged for twelve months of access. A monthly plan is one month, charged once; nothing renews on its own yet.

Questions people ask about something new

Fair questions, answered plainly.

Is Thrive an LMS?

Thrive is not an LMS. It is a talent development function for companies of 50 to 2,500 people: live workshops and programs led by facilitators who have held the role, a growing course library with compliance included, and agents that run the administration, at one flat price per organization. There is a platform underneath, and nobody on your side has to learn it.

How new is this?

The company is new. The programs and the people are not. Fundamentals of Leading People and the workshop catalog come from twenty-five years of building this for Fortune 1000 companies, delivered with SDI Clarity. John Ball Zoo has put 100+ first-time leaders through Fundamentals of Leading People.

What if you do not have the topic we need?

Ask ARIA for it. The request reaches our team directly, and the library is built from exactly those requests.

Why not just hire a consultant?

A consultant carries one slice of the work, by the day. Thrive carries the whole function at a flat price: the live session, applied work reviewed by our team, and the next session already on the calendar.
