Principles for Success

A person sits at a desk working on a laptop, perhaps scripting an animated explainer video. A child sits on their lap, reaching for the keyboard. A cat sleeps beside the laptop, and a coffee mug rests near a notepad and pencil.

We love what we do at ThinkingKap.

We love to create training that is creative, engaging, fun, and memorable.


That said, we’ve taken enough courses ourselves to know most training isn’t like this. And sadly, many people seem to think that training has to be boring and that fun is out of their budget.

We know every project has constraints and the job needs to get done – but we’d all really prefer if the finished course could be something everyone is happy with. You feel me?

While sometimes we’re asked to do “good enough,” we’d rather deliver “awesome!

So here are the principles that drive what we think results in awesome.
