Most workplace learning stops at insight. That’s not enough. Turn learning into action with activation tools

Can you afford to pay for training that doesn’t stick?

You’re already paying for behaviour change. But if you don’t activate learning, you’re funding forgetfulness.  

40% of workplace learning is forgotten or unused. That’s 40% of your investment burned before change even begins. 

And that’s before you count the cost of: 

  • Lost productivity: People spend hours in training but return to work unchanged. 
  • Scepticism towards future L&D: When change doesn’t happen, people stop believing it ever will. 
  • Missed business goals: Learning that isn’t activated means teams don’t evolve, innovation stalls and performance slides. 

Inaction is expensive. But it doesn’t have to be that way. 

At MindGym, we refuse to let your investment go to waste. Activation isn’t an afterthought, it’s the engine that drives real, lasting change. Built into the learning experience by our award-winning behavioural scientists our EPA methodology (Engage, Participate, Activate) makes behaviour change inevitable. And it works: 87% of people apply what they learn back at work.

What are activation tools?

Think of activation tools as the ‘practice’ after the theory. 

Designed by our behavioural science team, these tools help people rehearse, repeat and refine new ways of thinking and acting in their world, with their challenges, and on their terms. 

They don’t replace training. They reinforce it. They show up when motivation dips, when pressure hits and when behaviour matters most.  

Used alongside workshops or campaigns, they help turn insights into new habits and make sure the impact is sustainable.

How activation tools create lasting workplace behavioural change

Traditional training often stops at knowledge transfer. We take it further, embedding change into daily routines through interactive, practical tools that:

  • Turn theory into action – Employees practise skills in live workplace situations. 
  • Sustain momentum – Follow-ups ensure learning doesn’t fade after initial training. 
  • Reinforce accountability – Social commitment and self-reflection make change stick. 
  • Embed new habits – Small, consistent interventions lead to lasting behavioural shifts. 

By incorporating activation tools into wider workplace behavioural change programmes, organisations create a culture of continuous improvement where employees don’t just learn – they change the way they work, driving measurable improvements in productivity, innovation and engagement. 

You’ve already invested in learning. Let’s make sure you get a return.
