The workplace is evolving.
Is your manager training keeping up?
Today’s managers are drowning. 75% of HR leaders say their managers are overloaded with responsibilities, and 70% admit they aren’t prepared to lead through change. Meanwhile, AI is transforming industries, remote work is redefining team dynamics, and employees expect more from their leaders than ever before.
Yet most organizations are still training managers like it’s 1999 — and worse, many haven’t even clearly defined the skills their leaders need to succeed in today’s workplace.
The traditional approach to development is failing managers — and leaving companies struggling to keep up. One-off workshops, lectures, and one-size-fits-all programs aren’t just ineffective; they’re outdated and out of touch with what leaders actually need.
The problem
Traditional manager development is broken
Companies continue to pour resources into leadership development, but despite these efforts:
Middle managers, the backbone of organizations, often receive far less training investment than senior leaders.
Only one-third of HR leaders believe they’re effectively preparing leaders for the future.
The reality? Leadership isn’t learned in a lecture.
One-and-done training doesn’t build real skills. And without a clear competency framework defining leadership expectations, companies are training managers in the dark. Plus, managers are responsible for 70% of a team’s engagement and performance — so when companies get leadership development wrong, the impact is felt organization-wide.
The solution
A leadership refresh designed for 
the future
Managers don’t need another forgettable seminar. They need real-world practice, hands-on learning, human connection, and a clear roadmap for growth. The best leadership development programs are built for action — not passivity.
