WhatWorks® Research

The foundation of our business, our research identifies trends, best practices, benchmarks, methodologies, costs, and systems solutions spanning all areas of enterprise learning, talent management, and talent acquisition.

  

Our Research

We combine extensive and timely data collection and analysis with useful and actionable best-practice examples. Our research is based on quantitative and qualitative data. Throughout the year, our analysts conduct research surveys, detailed interviews with executives and practitioners, and vendor briefings. Because business and economic conditions are always changing, our research is ongoing so we can give members current, relevant perspectives.

Available to WhatWorks® members, our research spans all areas of enterprise learning, talent management, and talent acquisition. Research resources range from industry studies on learning culture and talent acquisition to maturity models for leadership development and succession planning; from best practices in modern performance management to building talent mobility; from planning ownership costs for a new learning management system to implementation guidelines for talent management suites.
