The biggest problem for L&D today is…

Attracting and keeping top managerial and leadership talent. Our latest research* shows that:

  • 64% of managers would look for another job if their organization failed to give them opportunities to learn.

  • Rising to 80% for managers under the age of 35.
  • Supporting L&D to nurture high potential employees
    L&D teams are often the first to face budget constraints in an economic downturn or turbulent business environment. As a result, many L&D teams are being pushed to do more (with less) to develop talent in-house.

    Gartner has identified Leader and Manager Development as the top priority for Learning and Development professionals. And Mind Tools agrees.

    Every organization needs effective, inspiring, and motivated managers to build and lead successful teams.
