How Coach M Works

Adding Coach M to your L&D program is simple.

When it’s time to apply their learning, employees are introduced to Coach M.

 

Over the next eight weeks, they engage in three 30-minute instant messaging chats with Coach M. We call these ‘learning breaks.’

Learning breaks help employees reflect on goals and keep themselves accountable, so they can implement their training on-the-job.

We track progress, so you can get insights into how employees are performing and applying their learning.

The end result? Employees perform better, and your training program becomes more effective in 90 minutes or less.

How Coach M Seamlessly Boosts Learning Application & ROI

When it comes to training, most employees only implement a very small fraction of what they learn.

Anywhere from $225,000 – $400,000 is wasted on information that employees will never actually use.

So if your organisation spends $500,000 on training per year…

At best, employees apply roughly half of what they learn in training (about 55%).  And at worst?

They only apply 20% of what they learn.

Ouch.

The industry term for this is ‘scrap learning’.  And as you might be able to guess… Scrap learning is information someone learned during training, but did not apply to their day-to-day work. 

The Subtle ‘Checkbox Problem’ Causing High Scrap Learning Rates

Here’s the harsh truth:

Most L&D Managers are evaluated on the wrong things.

Most are only evaluated on whether they are able to get ‘bums in seats’ for training.

Only about 1 in 5 L&D Managers is evaluated on their success in improving actual job performance.7

That means most companies aren’t paying attention to the results generated by training…

As a result — they end up with high scrap learning rates and training budgets that aren’t properly utilised.
