At Breakthrough Corporate Training, we believe productivity training should do more than share a few time-saving tips. It should help people understand themselves, clarify priorities, build better habits and walk away with practical tools they can actually use. And yes, it can be genuinely enjoyable too. That is exactly what I had the privilege [...]
Sometimes in hockey, your strategy is skill. Sometimes it’s positioning. And sometimes it’s becoming one with the ice and hoping for the best. Recently, the Hippos had a seriously fast call-up on their team, Eugene, who has played at Malaysia national team level and is an incredible skater. Naturally, I found myself matched up [...]
With the long weekend coming up, there’s usually a bit more time to step back from work. And for a lot of leaders, a similar question comes up: we’ve invested in training — so why hasn’t much changed? It’s not a criticism of the training itself.

At Breakthrough Corporate Training, we often talk about how clarity is a catalyst—whether it’s a team aligning around a common vision or a leader recognising their next step. But clarity doesn’t just belong in strategy documents and whiteboards. It starts with something more personal: the way we end our day. What if you finished [...]
At Breakthrough Corporate Training, one of the most rewarding parts of what we do is hearing from participants months after a workshop—especially when they share how their goals are coming to life. That’s exactly what happened when Kyra Blake, a recruiter in the JavaScript and Python space, shared a post marking the start of [...]
As the end of the financial year approaches in Australia, most organisations are taking a close look at numbers—budgets, forecasts, carryover, and compliance. But EOFY doesn’t just offer a moment to reconcile spend. It’s also a natural pause point to reflect on people, culture, and capability. We often reassess systems and finances this time [...]
Picture this workplace scenario: Marcus walks into Sarah's office with a clear agenda. He's got three critical decisions that need to be made before the 2 PM deadline.
