Design Thinking in Language Learning
Learning may often take place in a classroom full of people (or an office full of colleagues), but the truth is, it’s personal—especially when it comes to learning a new language. And unfortunately, it hasn’t always been easy for HR and learning and development (L&D) professionals to create unique, customizable experiences for employees.
Q&A: Citi’s Anca lordache on the Future of Learning

Why Companies Need Better People Analytics

Lessons from Asia’s Digital Transformation
Asia Pacific, which includes the populous countries of India and China, appears set to enjoy tremendous growth over the next few years. By 2021, the region’s GDP will grow by US$32 trillion, and roughly 60% of total GDP will come from digital products.
Celebrating Diversity in the Workplace
Technology and globalization are the driving forces shaping many companies, and diversity and inclusion are next in line as today’s workforce demands more social enterprises. At Speexx, we value our diverse richness, so every year our team comes together for Diversity Day to celebrate what makes each of us unique.
How Language Training Programs Use Microlearning to Increase Memory Retention
For many Learning and Development (L&D) professionals, it can be difficult to encourage employees to really commit to training programs. This is especially true when it comes to language training programs and the modern learner.
Is AI the Future of Hiring?
