Learning & Development leaders face an ongoing challenge: how to efficiently develop and empower managers at scale. Recent Perceptyx data reinforces both the unmet need and the opportunity for manager development. 55% of managers participating in our research stated they would take advantage of additional coaching opportunities if offered. That number rises to 60% when considering a digital coach, powered by AI, that could offer support in their flow of work rather than require dedicated time.

Not only that, they're 5.3 times more likely to see career opportunities ahead and 4.1 times more likely to feel valued by their company. It's clear: good managers are essential to keeping employees productive, engaged, and on board.
