What Leaders Are Saying About The Endeavor Report™
"Markus Bernhardt and his team have produced a unique piece of research. It is not a case study to illustrate a thesis, but a thesis assembled around eight powerful and varied case studies. These establish the dimensions of Applied Workforce Solutions, which are plotted across a four-element model separating the organizations into: efficiency accelerators, strategic enablers, capability creators, and core process innovators.
Therefore, the report's title, ‘The Endeavor Report: State of Applied Workforce Solutions,’ is richly illustrated. Furthermore, we are given a framework that helps us understand what this means in practice, then who is doing it, and how these successful organizations relate to one another.
Essentially, this report is all about the ways to connect learning to business value. Read it, and you will have a clear roadmap to achieve this in whichever way works best for your organization.”
— Dr. Nigel Paine, Industry Expert, Author, Advisor, and Co-Presenter of Learning Now TV
"This report is a rare blend of relevance and rigor. It cuts through the noise surrounding AI and workforce innovation by grounding insights in real-world application—not theory. A valuable tool for any leader."
— Dr. Keith Keating, Chief Learning Officer, BDO Canada
"This report extends beyond the superficial use of AI... The highlighted case studies showcase proven practices that readers can adapt to their own context. It's a showcase of real examples from real teams, doing meaningful work."
— David Kelly, Former Chairman and CEO, The Learning Guild
"The Endeavor Report provides clear, practical insight into how organizations are using emerging technologies to address real workforce challenges. For HR and Learning leaders... a welcome dose of realism."
— Brandon Carson, Chief Learning Officer, Docebo
"This consolidated report provides both a roadmap and cautionary tale to help ground my team in both what's possible and what to plan for to ensure a proper pull through to impact human and business performance."
