FEELING THROUGH

Who we are

Film Forward is an experiential learning platform designed to activate the full potential of today’s dynamic and diverse workforce. We replace boring corporate training videos with a cinematic learning experience built around award-winning short films from around the world, delivering professional development and capacity building curricula for the entire employee lifecycle. 

Take 60 seconds to experience why we have over an 80% completion rate – more than two times the industry average. All of our learning journeys are designed to develop the skills that foster psychologically safe workplaces, where individuals and teams feel comfortable taking risks, contributing ideas, and expressing concerns – the cornerstones for high performing, innovative organizations.

Our Approach

Research has shown that learners remember stories 22 times better than facts alone. Film Forward combines the visceral power of film with the opportunity for individual and team reflection, enabling collective sense-making. We curate exceptional short cinema from around the world as the starting point for each experiential learning journey. Each learning module enhances individual skills and behaviors through shared experiences, guided reflections, and actionable resources. We then scale the learning to teams through facilitated sessions, providing the organization with powerful executive insights to drive innovation and foster a sense of belonging.
