Key Outcomes
1. Improved Team Output
• Project Completion Rates:
Teams led by trained managers completed 95% of projects on time, up from 80% before the program.
• Revenue Growth:
Departments under trained leaders saw a 15% increase in revenue contribution within six months.
• Employee Engagement:
Team engagement scores improved by 25%, as measured through internal surveys.
2. Enhanced Employee Retention
• Turnover Reduction:
Employee turnover decreased from 18% to 12%, saving the company an estimated $500,000 annually in recruitment and onboarding costs.
• Retention in Key Roles:
Retention of high-performing employees improved by 20%, directly benefiting critical projects.
3. ROI Calculation
• Cost of the Program:
$250,000 (training development, Cygnus platform, and delivery).
• Benefits Realized:
• Savings from reduced turnover: $500,000.
• Increased team output contribution to revenue: $750,000.
• ROI Formula:
{ROI} = \frac{\text{Total Benefits} – {Program Cost}}{\text{Program Cost}} \times 100
{ROI} = \frac{(500,000 + 750,000) – 250,000}{250,000} \times 100 = 400\%
