Blinkist

We were at Offbeat Fest in London last week, and honestly? It was one of those events that reminds you why you love this work. No big stages, no polished sales decks. Just L&D people sitting across from each other at picnic tables, talking about the stuff that actually keeps them up at night. As a Partner Sponsor, we got to run a live coaching session during the Sponsor Hour, built around Michael Bungay Stanier's The Coaching Habit. We took the 7 Essential Coaching Questions and the (T)GROW model, and instead of presenting them, we practiced them. People role-played real challenges with each other, had honest breakout conversations, and left with an actual action plan for how to coach their teams differently. It was powerful, real, and a little uncomfortable in the best way. Exactly what good coaching should feel like. That's what a Blinkist Business live coaching session looks like, not a lecture, but a hands-on experience anchored in one powerful idea from a book that's worth your time. Big thanks to Lavinia Mehedințu , Ioana Göz, and the whole Offbeat crew for building something that actually feels human. We'll be back 💚.

We all carry beliefs that shape what we see, feel, and do, but what if some of them are holding us back? Join us live on May 26 for a session with Nir Eyal , bestselling author of Hooked, Indistractable, and Beyond Belief, to explore how shifting your beliefs can help unlock your full potential. You’ll leave with practical strategies to identify self-limiting patterns, build empowering beliefs, and take more intentional action in work and life.

Last week, the Blinkist team had an incredible experience at the App Growth Summit® 100 in Berlin! 🤩 Our talented colleagues Heiko Mandler and Nora Voß took the stage to share their insights with the app growth community. Heiko, our Native Ads Marketing Manager, joined the panel “Re-evaluating Traditional Mobile Marketing,” diving into how our industry is evolving. Meanwhile, Nora, our Head of Creative, brought fresh perspectives to the panel “Creative Edge: Winning Ad Concepts, Real Examples & the Rise of AI,” exploring what makes standout creatives and how AI is shaping our approach. A few of us from the Blinkist team were also there, soaking up knowledge from the fantastic sessions and connecting with other passionate professionals. Staying on top of the latest trends and ideas is something we truly value at Blinkist—it helps us keep innovating and delivering the best experience for our users. Big thanks to the App Growth Summit for hosting such a dynamic event and bringing together so many inspiring minds! 🚀

Most employees get less than 30 minutes a week to learn—yet learning is the key to engagement, growth, and retention. At Blinkist, we champion self-directed, bite-sized learning that fits seamlessly into busy workdays—not just annual training events. Curious what happens when you move from top-down training to empowering employees to take charge of their own development?
