The problem it solves
Many leaders lack the skills to communicate their vision effectively, which can lead to disengagement and lack of motivation among team members.
How it makes money
Course fees for individual classes or a membership model for access to all courses.
Skills you need
Curriculum development, instructional design, and expertise in communication and leadership.
The market, and why this works now
The Communication at Scale Academy can leverage platforms like LinkedIn Learning, which has seen increased demand for professional development courses. Offering introductory workshops through LinkedIn can attract initial users and generate revenue. However, the academy may face challenges in curriculum development, as creating high-quality content requires time and expertise in both communication and instructional design.
