As companies across industries grapple with talent shortages and shifting workforce expectations, the Why It Matters™ series is an innovative – and timely – addition to Sollah’s award-winning training portfolio, which has a legacy of over five million learners.

Reduced time off-the-job with microbursts of impactful learning

Why It Matters™ is Sollah’s answer to a global workplace challenge: how to upskill and re-skill employees efficiently in a high-pressure and time-poor work environment.

Unlike traditional training programs that require hours away from core responsibilities, Why It Matters™ delivers high-impact, bite-sized training content that fits easily into busy schedules. By breaking down information into digestible pieces, it boosts long-term retention and encourages continuous learning, while being cost-effective and scalable for organizations – making it a powerful tool for improving workforce performance.

Better employee engagement through relevant, real-world learning

Built around real-world workplace scenarios, the series leverages Sollah’s signature interactive storytelling – a key part of its approach to adult learning – to target a single workplace challenge or skill and drive change, one behavior at a time. 

Each module uses the company’s proven ‘E + I = C’ formula (Emotion plus Information equals Communication) to engage learners emotionally, while delivering information in memorable, actionable formats.

“Micro-learning turns everyday moments into upskilling opportunities, building stronger teams, one skill at a time,” says Bob Chonka, Executive Member of Sollah Interactive. “The future of work demands continuous growth. Micro-learning empowers organizations to meet that future – skill by skill, moment by moment.”

Immediate skill application opportunities

The series is built for versatility – ideal for onboarding or performance improvement plans (PIPs), just-in-time coaching, proactive culture-building initiatives, new manager development, or navigating team dynamics. This ‘problem-first’ approach ensures each learning moment is relevant and immediately actionable, helping teams solve real issues in real time.

Strengthened organizational culture, backed by research

Research shows that the micro-learning format significantly boosts both employee retention and engagement:

• Organizations that implement micro-learning report 50% higher engagement and a 17% increase in job satisfaction among employees.
• Micro-learning can boost retention rates by 25% to 60%, ensuring learners retain crucial information long term.
• Employees using a mobile micro-learning platform spend between 45% and 80% less time training, with no loss of comprehension.

“When talent is hard to find, upskilling the team you have with tools like micro-learning is the smartest investment you can make,” adds Jon Grannis, Executive Member of Sollah Interactive. “Upskilling through micro-learning isn’t just a strategy – it’s a necessity. In a fast-changing workplace, bite-sized, targeted learning keeps your people agile, engaged and ready for what’s next.”
