3. Propose innovative promotion methods (e.g., gamification, peer testimonials, leadership endorsement) to make the program appealing, especially to hesitant employees.
4. Suggest strategies to foster a culture of continuous learning, such as integrating learning goals into performance reviews or creating learning communities.

Guardrails

• Do not assume specific channels; ask if not provided.
• Avoid generic advice; tailor to the given audience and program.
• Stay within the scope of promoting the training program, not broader HR initiatives.

Example Program: "Cybersecurity Awareness", Audience: "All employees", Channels: "Email, Slack, Intranet", Barriers: "Perceived as boring"
