How leading companies are moving mountains

Albert Einstein once said, “In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are not.” We think he may have had a point. Theory is nothing without experience of putting approaches into practice. And there’s no denying that if you’re starting something new, understanding how people in similar situations navigated the journey is highly beneficial.

That’s why this week, we’re sharing real-life examples of how leading companies are moving mountains with their L&D strategy. From how AlphaSights and SupportWorks created their upskilling programs to how Trello and AND Digital built their flexible working cultures, we’ve got all the inspiration you need to design effective L&D strategies and make a difference in your organization.

And speaking of practice, be sure to check out how David James overcame some of the biggest L&D challenges in his time at Disney, and why companies are making internal movement their top priorities in 2023.
