Insight Global has been honored with the 2026 Training MVP Award by Training Magazine, a distinction that recognizes the company’s leadership in talent development and workforce readiness. Amidst a landscape of constant disruption, the firm has distinguished itself by treating employee learning as a core strategic lever rather than a peripheral support function. Central to this success is Insight Global University (IGU), an internal capability designed to foster performance and adaptability, ensuring that employees are equipped to meet the evolving needs of global customers.
Insight Global receives the 2026 Training MVP Award from Training Magazine.
Insight Global University (IGU) serves as the primary engine for internal talent development.
The training model integrates executive leadership directly into program delivery.
Programs focus on developing nearly 1,000 early-career professionals annually.
Training is designed in real time to align with the company's top strategic priorities.
Internal training strategies now underpin the firm's external consulting and talent solutions.
Insight Global University is built on the philosophy that personnel growth is the fundamental driver of corporate expansion. By focusing on the personal, professional, and financial development of its staff, the organization creates a high-performance culture that scales alongside its business objectives. Under the leadership of the Talent Development team, the university "obsesses" over craft and skill acquisition, ensuring that recruiters and sales teams can transition effectively from early-career roles into senior leadership positions while providing maximum value to clients.
A primary differentiator of the IGU model is its direct link to real-world application. Unlike static educational programs, training initiatives at Insight Global are planned and delivered in coordination with the executive team. This ensures that the curriculum remains focused on the company’s current strategic priorities, allowing employees to apply new skills immediately to their daily workflows. This hands-on approach has not only improved internal performance but has also provided a blueprint for the company’s broader consulting services.
The capabilities developed within IGU are now being utilized to assist external clients in navigating change and building high-performing teams. As the pace of technological and market change accelerates, Insight Global is leveraging its internal expertise to offer tech-enabled recruiting and technical consulting across more than 50 countries. By shifting toward dynamic, outcome-driven workforce strategies, the company remains focused on helping organizations move beyond traditional talent models to thrive in the future of work.
"From hiring and developing nearly 1,000 early-career professionals into high-performing recruiting and sales teams, to growing our senior leaders, IGU exists to develop our people so they can succeed in their careers and serve as strategic partners who deliver value to our customers' organizations. When our people thrive, the business thrives alongside them." — Jeremy Krickel, Executive Vice President of Talent Development
"If you don't train your people, it's hard for them to grow. If your people don't grow, your company doesn't grow. Training is everything to us." — Bert Bean, CEO
