ATD Intensive: Powering Frontline Performance

Starts on March 12, 2026

Powering Frontline Performance

Frontline employees represent 80% of the global workforce. However, the reality of frontline work, which is highly structured, mobile, and often technology-constrained, means they are frequently underserved when it comes to training and support. That’s why ATD Intensive is spotlighting frontline enablement. This one-of-a-kind virtual event gives L&D professionals practical strategies and a frontline-first mindset to strengthen performance where it matters most.

ATD Intensive: Powering Frontline Performance is the same immersive platform you love, with a new focus: equipping L&D and enablement professionals to support the modern frontline workforce. Grounded in real-world frontline realities, this program helps you redesign training into continuous, in-the-flow support, boost readiness and confidence, and empower overwhelmed managers with practical tools. You will leave with strategies to reduce turnover, strengthen connections and well-being, and turn frontline enablement into a true driver of operational performance and business results.
