Episode #159: No Time or No Support? What’s Really Blocking Development?
About This Episode
We heard it again and again in our survey responses: “I don’t have time.” But when leaders and professionals say development is being pushed aside, what’s really behind that answer? In this episode, we dig into the top barriers to professional development and explore what they may be signaling beneath the surface. Is development truly competing with the workday, or is it being crowded out by overload, burnout, and a lack of organizational support? This conversation looks beyond the data to examine the systems, signals, and cultural norms shaping how learning shows up—or doesn’t—in today’s workplace.

Want to Be Part of What Comes Next?
As we’ve been reviewing this data, one theme keeps coming up: A lot of leaders and professionals are navigating these challenges on their own, and they don’t have to.
We’re beginning to explore building a network of training, HR, and people development professionals across Missouri to share ideas, learn from each other, and tackle real workplace challenges together. Nothing formal yet, we’re just starting to shape it.
If you’d like to be part of that conversation (or help build it), we’d love your input:
👉 Share your interest in the MTI Network Interest Form
We Want to Hear From You!
🎙️Where is development getting squeezed out in your organization?
➡️ Drop your responses in the comments, DM us, or share it on Facebook or LinkedIn and tag us. We’ll feature a few next week!
