<p>This Friday (24th July at 1pm) we have joined forces with Towards Maturity to deliver a FREE 1 hour webinar with Laura Overton (Towards Maturity MD) who will share their findings from the latest Towards Maturity benchmark reports. The data the benchmarks have provided give a fantastic insight in to how HR and L&D teams can use data to make smart decisions that lead to improved performance.</p>
<p>L&D and HR need to become better business partners and consultants within the organisations we work in. This can only happen if we are well informed and can speak from a position of trust and credibility. The data doesn't lie!</p>
<p><span class="details" data-mce-mark="1">Today's HR and L&D leaders are faced with a myriad of choices on how to modernise their learning & performance strategy. With new expectations from their staff and their organisation, new models and tools, our thinking is being constantly reshaped and challenged. </span><span class="details" data-mce-mark="1">When time and budget are tight, how can we make smart decisions that improve both the performance of our organisation’s employees and our learning and development teams? </span><span class="details" data-mce-mark="1"><br /></span></p>
<p><span class="details" data-mce-mark="1">Following this webinar you will be able to:</span></p>
<p><span class="details" data-mce-mark="1">- Identify what tools and methods will make a difference to your learners’ performance <br />
- Make smart decisions that will improve your alignment and engagement <br />
