Growth looks different for everyone

There’s no single formula for professional development. Learning can happen through a course, an exchange of ideas with a colleague, experimenting with a new tool, or stepping outside one’s comfort zone to try something new. At Source, we encourage our talent to explore different learning opportunities and take an active role in their development.

Formal learning: building knowledge

Sometimes, growth starts with a structured learning experience. Our formal learning options offer opportunities to deepen expertise, explore new topics, and develop specific skills, giving our people the knowledge and confidence to move forward.

• Internal Training & Team Workshops: Courses and workshops that support personal and professional development, covering topics such as Copywriting, Code Review, and Negotiation Skills.
• External Training & Conferences: External learning opportunities and industry events that complement internal training and address specific development needs.
• Leadership Training: Dedicated sessions to strengthen leadership skills, exchange knowledge, and build connections among leaders.
• Source of Speakers: A public speaking program and community for people across Source brands to develop their speaking skills and prepare for opportunities such as all-hands meetings, community meetups, conferences, and panels.
• Language Courses: Language learning opportunities delivered by expert partners to strengthen communication skills.
• Online Learning: Access online learning platforms for flexible, self-paced skill development, including Skillshare, Coursera, Blinkist, and more.
• Library: Work-related books available to borrow or purchase, alongside growth resources recommended by Source leaders.
• Onboarding Sessions: Introductory sessions for new hires to learn about Source’s business, culture, and ways of working.

Learning from others: growing together

Some of the most valuable lessons come from conversations, shared experiences, and different perspectives. Connecting with colleagues can help people find solutions, discover new approaches, and see challenges in a different light.

• Development Consultations: One-on-one guidance from the Talent Management team to help employees set development goals and identify practical ways to support their growth. Available to all specialists who have been at Source for at least six months.
• Peer-to-Peer: Flexible knowledge-sharing and advice from colleagues, whenever support is needed.
• TesoXchange: A mentorship program that connects people with experienced professionals who share their knowledge and practical insights.
• Coffee Match: A simple way to expand the Source network through random matches, informal coffee chats, and new connections.
• Communities of Practice: Guilds, Communities, and Leadership Circles that bring people together to exchange ideas, share expertise, and learn from common interests and challenges.

Time to learn, space to grow

Learning takes time, and making space for it is an important part of professional growth.

At Source, employees can dedicate four hours per month during working hours to learning and development. This time can be used in different ways, from taking an online course or reading a book to connecting with a mentor, exploring a new tool, or working towards a development goal.

Some learning experiences, such as onboarding, changing roles, attending conferences, or taking language classes, may require additional time.

The goal is to make learning a regular part of working life, with opportunities to build new skills, explore interests, and apply new knowledge in practice.
