Productivity Costs Savings / Return on Investment

According to Gartner, a user with an annual salary of $30,000 working 40 hours a week, spends approximately 3 hours per week attempting routine tasks due to lack of training.

The three hours wasted represent a 7.5% lost productivity rate or $2,250 per user.

The following matrix illustrates the productivity savings. If GoalMinds training products increase each user’s productivity by 1 hour, this is approximately $844 in annual productivity savings per user per year.

 

In an organization with 250 employees or more, the annual productivity cost savings is substantial. Users
