over 66% of L&Ds feel lost and overwhelmed

We spend a lot of time exchanging with fellow L&D professionals. Lately, many of them describe feeling completely lost at sea.

After all the disruptions and uncertainty of 2020, most L&D teams feel overwhelmed and under-resourced to live up to their boss’s expectations - and their own.

And that’s completely understandable. Their challenges are sobering. L&D teams are expected to train a multigenerational workforce, improve diversity at the workplace, help employees adapt to whatever COVID19 or social and technological disruptions throw at us. Often with a small team and limited budget.

This week, we’ll break down the three biggest training challenges holding back even the most talented L&D teams, and offer some solutions - and hopefully, relief - before the holiday season.

Happy learning!
