In this explosive episode of The L&D Mindshift Bytecast, we expose the shocking truth about corporate training that EY just revealed through their revolutionary AI Academy. While most organizations obsess over completion rates and satisfaction scores, EY trained 44,000 employees and created a program that actually transforms businesses—producing 50 real AI projects across five companies with zero focus on traditional learning metrics. We reveal how EY discovered that implementation matters more than instruction, and how they stopped asking "Did you learn?" to start asking "What did you build?"

Through our strategic analysis, we examine the uncomfortable reality that 97% of enterprises cite talent shortage as their biggest barrier, when the real problem is our addiction to "learning theater"—expensive programs that create the illusion of development without driving actual change. We provide immediate action steps: eliminate satisfaction surveys, replace knowledge assessments with build requirements, and shift measurement focus from activity tracking to outcome counting. We also address the real threats this approach poses to traditional L&D and the massive opportunities to transform from content delivery to problem-solving capability.

Whether you're frustrated with training programs that don't change behavior, struggling to prove business value from learning investments, or questioning why carefully designed courses don't translate to workplace performance, this episode offers a brutally honest assessment and practical roadmap for transformation. Join us as we make the case that the future of workplace learning isn't about better engagement—it's about stopping the performance and starting to build things that matter.
