There is a clear contradiction at the heart of most L&D strategies. While 92% of leaders say learning drives performance, nearly half of organisations allocate no formal time for it.
This People Management webinar brings together experts from MHR and Hodge Bank to explore why this disconnect persists and what it means for performance, engagement and retention.
It will move beyond intent and investment to focus on execution: how learning actually happens in modern organisations and why investment in L&D doesn’t always lead to better performance where it matters.
What we'll discuss:
- How to dismantle the number one barrier to L&D: "I don't have the time."
- How the businesses already testing or planning for AI are working smarter, not harder.
- Making in-house delivery work for a busy, modern workforce.
- Moving from simple participation stats to metrics that finally win over senior leadership.
- Turning aspirational L&D into a high-performance reality.
