About The Next Skill Academy
The Next Skill Academy is a research-led learning platform focused on future skills, learning and development, communication and leadership.
It exists to explore how people and organisations can grow, communicate clearly, and stay effective in a fast-changing, AI-shaped world. Through research, practical frameworks, articles, guides, lecture materials, speaking, and workshop-style learning experiences, The Next Skill Academy shares ideas that are clear, useful, and connected to real work.

The Academy was founded by Kristof Kolodzinski, a learning strategist, facilitator, and researcher with experience across learning and development, leadership development, communication, and future skills. His work brings together academic insight and real-world professional experience to create learning that is thoughtful, practical and grounded in application.
Alongside Kristof, The Next Skill Academy also collaborates with a wider network of facilitators, coaches, and subject-matter experts, bringing together the right expertise for selected projects, sessions and learning experiences.
