The Challenge

• Design and deliver a whole-of-organisation leadership program supporting Woodside's transformation goals

• Partner AGSM and Guroo to deliver an integrated solution combining best-in-breed content and technology

• Leverage platform features to optimise organisation-wide learning rollout

• Integrate seamlessly with existing HR systems and LMS infrastructure

The Academy Solution

Academy (branded as Navigator for Woodside) provided the enterprise-grade infrastructure needed for this ambitious organisation-wide program:

• Scalable multi-level architecture – Academy supported five distinct leadership phases, managing complex program structures and progression rules across different leadership levels

• Blended delivery orchestration – The platform coordinated in-person immersions, virtual sessions, and self-paced programs within integrated development pathways

• Curated pathway management – Academy's learning pathway functionality enabled personalised development journeys based on role, level, and organisational needs

• Enterprise system integration – Academy integrated directly with SuccessFactors for automatic pathway assignment, employee data synchronisation, HRM integration, SSO, and automated account provisioning

• Credential and points management – The platform managed CEMD Program Points and issued credentials through UNSW for credit towards broader award programs

• Fully managed service model – Academy's operational features enabled AGSM and Guroo to deliver white-glove program management and learner support at scale

The Results

• Over 5,000 Woodside staff engaged with the program through Academy's platform

• Over 6,000 credentials awarded and tracked through Academy's credentialing system

• 70% of participants reported measurable capability uplift across ten leadership dimensions

• Consistently receiving evaluations above 4.5 out of 5, reflecting both content quality and platform experience

• Leaders who completed the Navigator Program are consistently rated as better leaders by their teams

• Academy's enterprise integration capabilities eliminated manual administrative overhead, enabling seamless delivery at massive scale

Academy's enterprise-ready features – particularly its integration capabilities, pathway management, and scalable infrastructure – were essential in transforming this ambitious vision into a successfully delivered, organisation-wide transformation program. The platform's ability to handle complex credentialing, coordinate multiple delivery modes, and integrate with enterprise HR systems made it possible to deliver consistent, high-quality leadership development to thousands of employees across the globe.
