In this article you'll learn:
Why MYCA Learning and Executive Forum came together
The story behind MYCA Learning and the vision that shaped the organization
How our combined strengths create a more complete approach to organizational transformation
What this means for our clients, partners, facilitators, and the future
A Shared Vision
Organizations perform best when people feel supported, leaders are equipped to lead, and learning is connected to meaningful action.
That belief has guided MYCA Learning for more than two decades. It has also been the driving force behind Executive Forum's work in leadership development, coaching, facilitation, and organizational strategy.
Although our organizations began with different strengths, we discovered we shared the same vision: helping organizations create lasting impact by developing people, strengthening leaders, and building healthier workplaces.
Earlier this year, those shared values brought our organizations together.
Today, MYCA Learning and Executive Forum are working side by side to support organizations through the complete journey of organizational transformation.
How MYCA Learning Began
In this conversation recorded at the WBENC National Conference in Salt Lake City, Patti Massey shares the story behind MYCA Learning and the vision that has guided the organization for more than twenty years.
Building Something That Lasts
More than twenty years ago, Patti Massey founded MYCA Learning with a simple belief: learning should create meaningful change.
Over the years, MYCA became known for helping organizations build engaging learning experiences through instructional design, eLearning, workforce development, compliance training, and custom learning solutions.
As the organization grew, so did its impact.
MYCA partnered with government agencies, nonprofits, educational institutions, and private organizations across the country, always focusing on creating learning experiences that improved organizations and the people within them.
But as successful as MYCA had become, one question continued to surface.
How could organizations receive support beyond the classroom?
How could learning become part of a broader organizational strategy instead of a standalone event?
Those questions ultimately led to the next chapter.
Building ideas together. One of the many planning sessions that helped shape MYCA Learning's growth and the collaborative culture that continues today.
The Missing Piece
As Patti and I spent time getting to know one another, we realized something important.
Our organizations weren't competitors.
They were complementary.
Executive Forum specialized in leadership development, executive coaching, strategic planning, facilitation, organizational health, and team effectiveness.
MYCA specialized in learning and development, instructional design, workforce development, and creating engaging learning experiences.
Each organization filled a gap the other had been trying to solve.
Together, we realized we could support organizations in a much more complete way than either of us could alone.
Why MYCA Learning and Executive Forum Came Together
In this conversation, Patti and Samantha discuss how the strengths of both organizations came together to create a more complete approach to organizational transformation.
Building the Complete Learning Journey
When organizations face challenges, the answer is rarely a single workshop, coaching session, or training program.
Sometimes the challenge is leadership.
Sometimes it's communication.
Sometimes it's culture.
Sometimes it's strategy.
Sometimes it's learning.
Most often, it's a combination of all of those things.
That's why we've expanded our approach.
Rather than focusing on individual services, we now support organizations through the complete journey of organizational transformation.
Together, MYCA Learning and Executive Forum now help organizations:
Assess organizational challenges
Build leadership capability
Develop learning solutions
Facilitate strategic conversations
Strengthen organizational systems
Implement meaningful change
Sustain long term results
The goal isn't simply to deliver training.
It's to create measurable, lasting impact for employees, leaders, organizations, and every stakeholder involved.
Relationships have always been at the heart of MYCA Learning. For years, Patti has invested in building strong partnerships through organizations like WBENC, relationships that continue to shape our future.
A Strong Foundation for the Future
One of the things that makes this transition unique is that it isn't simply a change in ownership.
It's a partnership built on trust.
Patti continues to serve as a mentor and advisor throughout the transition, helping preserve the relationships, values, and culture that have made MYCA Learning successful for more than twenty years.
That continuity allows us to honor MYCA's legacy while thoughtfully expanding what the organization can offer in the future.
Today, MYCA Learning continues to grow through a talented team committed to helping organizations strengthen leaders, develop people, and create lasting impact.
Looking Toward the Future
As the conversation came to a close, Patti and Samantha reflected on what this transition means for the future of MYCA Learning, Executive Forum, and the organizations they serve.
Continuing the Journey
Every organization has a story.
This next chapter isn't about changing MYCA Learning.
It's about building on an incredible foundation while expanding the ways we can serve organizations and communities across the country.
Together, MYCA Learning and Executive Forum now offer a more connected approach to organizational transformation, bringing together strategy, leadership development, learning, coaching, facilitation, implementation, and long term sustainment under one vision.
Our commitment remains the same:
To help organizations create environments where people thrive, leaders grow, and learning leads to meaningful, measurable results.
The next chapter of MYCA Learning is built on trust, shared values, and a commitment to carrying Patti's legacy forward while continuing to grow together.
