Strategies to Mitigate ‘The Great Resignation’ (Strategy Brief)

Seven in 10 surveyed organizations said employee turnover will increase over the next year and 39% said the increase will be moderate or great. Organizations can respond by trying to patch up current processes or take a fresh and honest look at where they want to be as an organization and how to transform to reach their goals. This Strategy Brief provides strategies to help employers adjust to hybrid work while creating an environment more likely to retain talent.

Research Summary

How to Develop More Great Leaders (Research Summary)

One-third of organizations believe they are effective in developing great leaders, according to Brandon Hall Group’s study, Great Leaders: How Do We Develop More? About the same percentage believe they are effective at succession planning. The main reason: a majority of organizations report that they lack widespread agreement on the critical attributes and competencies of great leaders and how to develop them. Brandon Hall Group has developed five high-level strategic recommendations to help organizations develop more great leaders.

Mining for Gold in Your LMS Data (eBook)

The LMS stands as the core technology platform for learning, with about 87% of companies using at least one. Yet, for all of the heavy lifting organizations expect their LMS to do, many are still challenged by the mountains of data their LMS generates, as shown below. By finding and analyzing the right data, companies gain broader insights into learning, from how learners are behaving to the impact programs are having. This is especially true in the extended enterprise, where it can be difficult to gain insight into external learning audiences. But Brandon Hall Group’s research found that few organizations are very mature when it comes to how they are measuring learning.

How the Workforce Learns: 15 Things Your Learning Culture Needs to Get Right

Over 40% of the global workforce is considering leaving their employers this year. L&D leaders have a bigger opportunity than ever to improve the employee experience and worker retention by implementing a positive learning culture. But until now, learning leaders have struggled to even define learning culture, let alone build or improve one. That’s why we asked more than 2,400 global workers what the best companies get right about their learning opportunities, and where others go wrong. Watch this webinar replay with David Wentworth, Principal Learning Analyst for Brandon Hall Group, and Anthony Wilkey, Client Success Director at Degreed, as they explore the 15 things all positive learning cultures have in common — and what you can steal from them.
