Carpetright have taken transformational steps in ensuring that learning strategies are modernised for their workforce. Fuse Universal CEO, Steve Dineen, highlights the importance of defining the role learning plays when developing a next-gen experience for colleagues.

Dineen states, “When we began working with Carpetright 18 months ago it was evident that their success story would be driven by the unification of their learning and comms strategies. What we have seen as a result is quite remarkable both in terms of daily learning habits and employee engagement results. Carpetright is not your typical tech firm so to see the unprecedented levels of engagement, and business performance is a statement to the industry that paves the way for other traditional retailers and organisations looking to move their business forward.”


Lyn Warren, HR Director at Carpetright, added, “What we know from hard data is that the colleagues that connect the most with Fuse and really engage with the content, perform much better than their peer group. The difference is a double-digit difference. They learn about the products that we are selling, the services that we offer and how best to serve our customers and they perform much better - adding real value to our business.”
