The Executive Lens: From Black Box ROI to Causal Confidence

An executive needs to de-risk their L&D investment by understanding not just *that* a program works, but *why* it works. Gnowbe provides the diagnostic clarity that correlational models lack.

The "Black Box" Dilemma

The data shows a problem (e.g., performance variance between regions), but provides no clear path to a solution.1, 8

The Gnowbe Performance Pipeline

Step 1: Engagement Data: West: 95% Completion | East: 65%
Step 2: Assessment Data: West: 90% Avg. Score | East: 72%
Step 3: Application Data: West: Vibrant Group Board | East: Minimal

The diagnosis is clear, enabling targeted, data-driven action to de-risk the L&D investment.10, 12
