Great training is only the beginning. The real challenge is sustaining learning once participants return to the realities of the workplace. While many organizations invest heavily in training design and delivery, learning often fades quickly without the reinforcement, leadership support, and operational alignment needed to sustain behavior change over time.

This round table will explore what actually helps learning stick after the training event. We will discuss the organizational, leadership, and reinforcement strategies that support long-term capability development, including the role of managers, second-line leaders, coaching, accountability, practice, and learning integration into day-to-day work.

The discussion will also examine why organizations often struggle to sustain learning despite strong content and facilitation, and how leading organizations are shifting from isolated training events toward more integrated learning and leadership capability systems.

Participants will share current approaches, practical challenges, lessons learned, and ideas for sustaining learning in ways that lead to more consistent execution and long-term performance improvement.

Discussion Topics

• Why Learning Often Fades After Training
  Common reasons learning and behavior change fail to sustain once participants return to the workplace.
• The Reinforcement Gap
  How organizations are approaching reinforcement today and what strategies appear to have the greatest long-term impact.
• The Role of Managers and Leaders
  How manager involvement, coaching, accountability, and leadership alignment influence whether learning actually sticks.
• Sustaining Learning Through Practice and Application
  Approaches for helping learners apply, refine, and operationalize new skills over time rather than treating training as a one-time event.
• Building Learning and Leadership Capability Systems
  How organizations are moving beyond standalone workshops toward more integrated approaches that support sustained capability development.
• Measurement, Accountability, and Lessons Learned
  What organizations are measuring, where sustainment efforts commonly break down, and practical lessons from the field.
