We flipped training on its head. First, an original animated film gave employees a character they could see themselves in—sparking openness and reflection. Next, six short videos broke down the film’s themes, encouraging honest conversation.

Finally, the key lessons were distilled into a take-home graphic novel—part story, part toolkit—designed to be read, remembered, and kept.
