Most Companies Don’t Have a Training Problem — They Have a Knowledge Transfer Problem

Most companies don’t have a training problem — they have a knowledge transfer problem. Let’s talk about the hidden cost of communication that can be solved with training. Every time a product update doesn’t get shared clearly… Every time a new hire learns by guessing… Every time a partner misrepresents your offer… You pay for it — in delays, rework, churn, and missed opportunity. In fact, poor communication costs large enterprises an average of $62.4M per year in productivity losses. The root cause? Knowledge is scattered, outdated, or locked in someone’s head. Meanwhile, your teams — and your customers — move faster than ever. They expect clear, accessible, up-to-date guidance. Most training systems can’t keep up. Here’s what’s really at risk when knowledge doesn’t scale:

  1. Slow onboarding: new hires and customers take too long to ramp up.
  2. Low adoption: products go unused because no one knows how.
  3. High support load: basic questions flood your helpdesk.
  4. Employee churn: people leave when they feel lost or unsupported.
  5. Inconsistency: one process, 20 different ways of doing it. Modern leaders don’t just need more training — they need a system that continuously captures, distributes, and updates knowledge at scale. One that integrates with how people actually work.
