Measure the true impact of your L&D investment

World-leading organizations recognize the value of investing in Learning and Development (L&D). But high investment – over $380 billion* globally in 2023 – brings a heightened focus on the outcomes achieved.

Robust and reliable metrics are key to building the people capabilities that drive organizational performance.

Mind Tools Insights
Mind Tools Insights is an impact-driven consultancy service. We help L&D, Organizational Development and Talent Management functions to develop and embed robust measurement frameworks.

This helps them to understand the behaviours, perceptions and approaches of their people and make evidence-informed decisions.

This enables your organization to evaluate your L&D initiatives, ensuring they align with the business and have the intended impact on critical KPIs.
We work in partnership with you to ensure you can:
  • Understand behavioural changes

  • Measure the impact of L&D on business critical KPIs

  • Identify barriers and enablers to successfully measuring impact

  • Demonstrate the value of learning and development to your key stakeholders.
  • New: Manager Skills Assessment

    Our Manager Skills Assessment is a robust, scientific assessment. It measures the 12 foundational management skills identified in our Building Better Managers report.

    We will tailor our consultancy to your needs but here are some examples of how we’ve supported other clients
