Bridging Learning Cultures: What U.S. and European Companies Can Teach Each Other About On-Demand Training

Joe Brown

Clark Schaefer Hackett

Bridging Learning Cultures...



Organizations across the U.S. and Europe face a shared challenge when it comes to employee training: balancing the need for essential knowledge with meaningful engagement. Traditional “push” training approaches, where employees are mandated to attend sessions, often lead to compliance-driven participation rather than genuine commitment.
