At a glance...
Background
For many years, La-Z-Boy relied on learning materials that were difficult and time-consuming to produce to support employee and leadership development across its workforce. With a growing global audience and increasing expectations for engaging, digital learning experiences, there was pressure for change. So, La-Z-Boy turned to GuyKat to provide expert guidance on how to tackle this change.
What was the learning challenge?
La-Z-Boy’s small Talent Development team is responsible for learning, performance, succession, and engagement strategies, making time and scale constant challenges. With limited capacity to support global, multilingual audiences, alongside a highly segmented workforce with different access needs (desk-based vs frontline), the team struggled to create learning experiences at pace. Producing high-quality video content often required hours of recording, re-recording, and coordination, slowing delivery and limiting opportunities to experiment and iterate.
La-Z-Boy needed:
To create high-quality content at pace.
Create learning for multi-lingual audiences across a segmented global workforce
Support multiple access needs across different devices
What was the solution?
Through their partnership with GuyKat, La-Z-Boy explored new ways to reduce content creation time without compromising quality or the learner experience. GuyKat ntroduced Colossyan, an AI-powered video platform designed to simplify video creation and localisation.
Colossyan fundamentally changed how La-Z-Boy approaches learning design and delivery.
La-Z-Boy needed:
PowerPoint decks transformed into videos in minutes
No voiceover recording, retakes, equipment, or studio setup required
One-click translation into multiple languages
Short video tutorials embedded within programmes to provide clarity and guidance
““The biggest shift has been how I use Colossyan to support learners inside the experience, especially through tutorials and guided touchpoints. It’s allowed me to layer in clarity and direction with quick tutorials without rebuilding entire courses or adding complexity.””

What was the impact?
La-Z-Boy adopting Colossyan has made the process of course creation efficient.
One standout example came during the launch of a new employee listening and engagement platform.
La-Z-Boy used Colossyan to quickly create video walkthroughs of the system, alongside reminder videos outlining expectations and timelines, all rapidly localised for global teams.
