Learning for the New Age of Work

AI is changing how teams work, how managers lead, and how organizations operate.

AI Transformation

Successful AI transformation isn’t only about adopting new software.

Organizations also need employees who understand how to use AI effectively, managers who can lead through uncertainty, and teams that can adapt to changing workflows.

Hone helps organizations build those capabilities through AI-focused learning, skills practice, coaching, and development experiences. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

Live Classes

Hone provides live classes that connect managers and leaders with expert instructors and a broader learning community.

Organizations can also use cohort-based programs designed specifically for their teams, creating a more focused learning experience around their particular needs.

AI Lessons & Roleplays

Employees can access short, on-demand lessons, practice exercises, and workplace scenarios designed to help them apply new skills.

AI-powered roleplays allow learners to practise difficult conversations and receive personalized feedback in a low-risk environment.

Hone AI Coach

Hone AI provides employees with continuous support outside scheduled training sessions.

The AI Coach can help employees work through challenges, answer questions, practise skills, and discover learning experiences relevant to their development goals.

This gives organizations a way to extend learning beyond individual classes and make development available throughout the workday. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

1:1 & Group Coaching

Employees can also work directly with professional coaches through individual and group coaching experiences.

Coaching helps learners establish meaningful goals, reflect on progress, develop new behaviours, and maintain accountability.

Effective Managers & Leaders

Strong managers have a direct impact on team performance, engagement, and organizational health.

Hone provides development programs designed to help managers build confidence, improve communication, navigate difficult situations, and become more effective leaders.

First-Time Managers

Moving into management requires an entirely different set of skills.

Hone helps first-time managers transition from individual contributors into capable leaders by developing skills around communication, delegation, feedback, goal setting, and team performance.

Senior Leaders

Senior leaders require development experiences that reflect the complexity and scale of their responsibilities.

Hone offers customizable learning journeys designed for directors and senior executives, helping leaders navigate organizational change and develop stronger leadership capabilities.

Individual Contributors

Leadership development isn’t limited to people with direct reports.

Hone also provides learning experiences for high-performing individual contributors who want to strengthen communication, collaboration, influence, and other essential workplace skills.

Company-Wide Development

Organizations can provide learning experiences across their entire workforce, helping establish shared capabilities and a common language around communication, performance, collaboration, and change.

Built for HR & L&D Teams

Hone is designed to help HR and Learning & Development teams deliver high-quality employee development at organizational scale.

The platform combines learning content, live experiences, AI support, coaching, learner assessments, and reporting into a broader development ecosystem.

Integrations

Hone integrates with platforms commonly used by HR and workplace teams, including Cornerstone, UKG, Docebo, Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Okta, Rippling, and OneLogin. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

These integrations help organizations incorporate employee development into existing HR and workplace workflows rather than creating another isolated system.

Learning at Scale

Hone is designed for organizations ranging from growing startups to large enterprises.

The platform currently highlights customers including Indeed, Zoom, Subway, Aramark, Dow Jones, GitLab, On and other major organizations. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

Measurable Impact

Hone uses employee feedback and learning metrics to demonstrate the impact of its programs.

The company reports that 91% of employees say their performance at work has increased, while other published metrics include a 316% year-over-year increase in engagement and more than 2,000 total learning hours in one highlighted customer example. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}

Research-Backed Learning

Hone combines expert instruction, practical learning experiences, assessments, and coaching to create development programs designed around real workplace challenges.

The emphasis is on applying skills rather than simply consuming educational content.

A Complete Employee Development Ecosystem

Traditional corporate training often ends when the workshop finishes.

Hone extends learning through a combination of live classes, AI coaching, practice sessions, roleplays, assessments, and professional coaching.

This creates more opportunities for employees to practise and reinforce skills over time.

Skills for Continuous Growth

Modern organizations need employees who can continuously learn and adapt.

Hone focuses on the human skills that remain essential as technology evolves, including communication, leadership, collaboration, feedback, agility, and change management.

For Organizations Ready to Transform

Whether an organization is implementing AI, developing its next generation of managers, strengthening leadership capabilities, or improving workplace performance, Hone provides scalable development experiences to support the journey.
