Why Workplace Training FAILS : A Conversation with Meghan Morrison

In this episode of Wired to Work, Jess Chapman sits down with strategic HR professional Meghan Morrison to unpack why workplace learning so often fails to create real change, and what it would take to make learning actually stick. They explore why sending someone to a workshop is not the same as helping them grow, why application matters more than attendance, and why learning has to be built into the way work happens rather than added on after the fact. You’ll hear: • why classroom training alone rarely changes behaviour • why application, reflection, and feedback matter more than binders and certificates • how leaders can make learning part of everyday work without spending a fortune • why mentorship, shadowing, and debriefing are often more powerful than formal courses • what the 70-20-10 model looks like in real life • how to help people take ownership of their growth instead of waiting to be “sent” to learn • why teams need space to ask questions, make mistakes, and reflect in real time This conversation is for leaders, HR teams, and anyone trying to build a workplace where people keep learning instead of just attending training. If you’ve ever wondered why development plans go nowhere, why training gets forgotten, or how to make learning part of culture, this one is for you. Wired to Work with Jess Chapman.
