Bridging the gap between theoretical business knowledge and practical, on-the-job application is a key challenge in professional development. To address this, CodeSignal, the leading AI-native skills platform, has announced a strategic partnership with Harvard Business Review Press (HBR Press). As the latest addition to CodeSignal's Experts Series, this collaboration transforms acclaimed HBR Guides into interactive, practice-based learning paths, enabling professionals to actively build skills in leadership, finance, and strategy rather than just passively consuming content.

CodeSignal partners with Harvard Business Review Press for its Experts Series.
Four HBR Guides are being transformed into interactive learning paths.
Topics include managing up, building business cases, finance basics, and effective meetings.
The courses are available for both web and mobile to fit any workflow.
The goal is to turn respected business insights into hands-on, applicable skills.
This joins other Experts Series partnerships with TED and AWS.
Turning Proven Frameworks into Practice
At launch, the partnership introduces four interactive learning paths adapted from some of HBR's most popular guides. These include the HBR Guide to Managing Up and Across, the HBR Guide to Building a Better Business Case, the HBR Guide to Making Every Meeting Matter, and the HBR Guide to Finance Basics for Managers. Each path is designed to move learners beyond reading about concepts to applying them in realistic scenarios, helping them master the art of influence, craft persuasive proposals, run efficient meetings, and understand financial statements.
"Harvard Business Review has always been committed to equipping professionals with the ideas and insights they need to lead and thrive," said Erika Heilman, Vice President, Deputy Publisher at Harvard Business Review. "By partnering with CodeSignal, we're able to bring our most trusted content into a hands-on, experiential format that turns knowledge into action."
Expanding a World-Class Learning Ecosystem
This partnership significantly enriches CodeSignal's Experts Series, which already features content from renowned partners like TED, AWS, and Dr. Barbara Oakley. By combining HBR's globally respected business authority with CodeSignal's experiential learning platform, the collaboration empowers professionals worldwide to practice and master the critical soft skills and business acumen required to thrive in the modern workplace. This initiative underscores a shared mission to not just inform, but to transform, equipping individuals with the tangible skills needed for immediate impact and long-term career growth.
