"The biggest misconception is that learner engagement happens after the learning is launched – as if people will just magically show up because it exists. Spoiler alert: they won’t. Engagement starts before the learning product is even built."
Ashley Hinchcliffe

Managing Director at MAAS Marketing

"A major issue is failing to personalize the "why" for learners. Engagement is a lot like sales—people need their own reason to invest, and that investment has to happen before the training begins."
Kyle Norman

Sales Enablement Specialist at FareHabour

"Many programs are too generic, too far removed from the actual work, or feel like a box-ticking exercise. Often, there’s no clear “why”, and people are left wondering why it matters."
