Straight Talking. Clear Thinking.
Every L&D and HR leader we speak to has a version of the same story. People are not engaging with learning programmes, and if they do even launch or sign up then completion rates for non- mandatory learning is less than 20%. The instinctive response is to ask what is wrong with the content, or […]
