About Paradigm Learning

As a pioneer in discovery learning, Paradigm Learning has provided award-winning employee and management development programs to more than half of the companies on the Fortune 500 list. 

Our History

Industry leaders Catherine Rezak and Raymond Green founded Paradigm Learning with the objective of changing the world of training. They had grown impatient with the “boredom factor” and low impact of traditional training. Using a creative approach, they asked:

• What if we could develop learning experiences that capture attention and energize employees?
• What if learners carried these experiences into the real work world and delivered real ROI for their organizations?

Our Philosophy

Paradigm Learning was created to answer these questions, bringing energy and excitement to the training industry. With the goal of driving real results in organizations via the discovery learning process, employees participate in highly interactive sessions, learning through board games, business simulations and customized educational tools. Our philosophy is simple, yet highly effective:

• Learn
• Have Fun
• Succeed

Our Products and Services

Paradigm Learning products and services are focused on making our philosophy a reality. In 1994, we launched our flagship program, “Zodiak®:The Game of Business Finance and Strategy.” Utilizing an engaging board game, employees are put in charge of a $40 million business. During a simulated three years of play, participants learn how business decisions impact the bottom line — and learn the basics of finance and strategy.

Leveraging the success of Zodiak, Paradigm Learning continues to influence the way companies communicate with and educate their people. From project management to leadership accountability to organizational change, our products and services portfolio targets critical business issues and creates dynamic opportunities for breakthrough learning.
