Best Corporate – Learning & Development Provider (Gold)

Every meaningful change in an organisation begins with learning—not just learning new skills, but learning to see, think, and act differently. This conviction sits at the heart of Organisational Development Concepts (ODC), whose people-centred approach to growth earned it the Best Corporate – Learning & Development Provider (Gold) Award at the Readers’ Choice Awards 2025.

For Anthony Ho, Founder and General Manager of ODC, learning is a continuous process that extends far beyond the walls of a training room. “At ODC, we believe that learning is not confined to the training room—it is a continuous journey of growth, reflection, and application,” he explained. “True learning begins the moment an individual becomes curious about doing things better, and it deepens when that curiosity is nurtured through meaningful engagement and real-world practice.”

That belief has shaped ODC’s distinctive approach to learning and development (L&D). Rather than treating workshops as one-off events, ODC partners with organisations to design learning ecosystems that sustain growth and reinforce behavioural change over time. “Over the years, we’ve learned that the most powerful development happens when learning is lived, not just taught,” said Ho. “For us, a programme does not end with the session concludes—it only begins there.”

To achieve lasting impact, ODC creates multi-touchpoint learning experiences that bring learning to life. These include fireside chats, post-workshop learning forums, coaching clinics, and skills practice sessions—each designed to deepen reflection, encourage peer learning, and move participants from knowing to doing. This integrated approach helps individuals gain clarity and confidence in applying what they have learned, bridging the gap between theory and practice.

Equally important to ODC’s success is its team of dedicated facilitators, who Ho described as “catalysts for discovery.” He explained, “Our facilitators are not merely instructors, but catalysts who guide discovery, provoke reflection, and help participants connect knowledge with purpose.” With their wealth of professional experience and facilitation expertise, ODC’s facilitators create safe yet engaging environments that inspire openness, curiosity, and personal growth.

For ODC, the true value of learning lies in its connection to real work and lived experience. Programmes are designed not only to build capability, but also to spark insight, strengthen collaboration, and align individuals with organisational values. By linking learning to people’s day-to-day challenges, ODC ensures that development efforts translate into meaningful change across teams and functions.

At its core, ODC’s philosophy rests on one guiding belief: when people grow, organisations evolve. “By helping individuals build self-awareness, align with organisational values, and practice new mindsets and behaviours, we enable change that lasts,” said Ho.

As the Best Corporate – Learning & Development Provider (Gold) winner at the Readers’ Choice Awards 2025, ODC continues to set the benchmark for transformative learning. “To help people learn in ways that transform how they think, how they work, and how they lead. That’s the heart of learning that truly lasts.”
