About the Leadership Program

The Evolve leadership development program was built by Flint Learning Solutions for Purolator in 2018, at a time when Purolator was undergoing unprecedented change to meet the expectations of a rapidly evolving marketplace. The target audience for the program was comprised of managers, with this cadre of approximately 500 people having a direct impact on 85% of the workforce.

One of the program’s objectives was to empower managers, and the blended learning experience showed them how to lead in many competitive, tough, diverse, and modern situations.

Flint Learning Solutions worked collaboratively with Purolator to complete an extensive needs analysis and formulate a creative, blended learning approach that was measurable and impactful to the business.

The result? Purolator saw a 90% employee engagement rate, an 11% increase in NPS (Net Promoter Score), and a 15% reduction in employee grievances.

The program has built connections, common purpose, skills, expectations and commitment among all levels of management and kick-started culture change around several key organizational goals in a short period of time.
