I love the master class formats and appreciate having the learning tools available before class. Seeing frameworks and sample templates has had the most impact. The diverse courses, especially the AI-powered ones, offer real-time feedback with role-playing, which helps greatly in improving collaboration and communication. The AI coaching sessions, which are 5-7 minutes long, allow me to address situations in real-time. I find the Hone messages via Teams helpful in keeping our commitments accountable. Hone has also made a lot of team members more comfortable using Chat GPT. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the course offerings are great, but I would like to see more technical skills courses. I feel that more AI-powered courses would benefit us since some participants, including myself, might be too shy in breakout sessions. Adding more practical sessions on commonly used tools like Excel would also be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like Hone's course materials, as they have helped me learn about AI and built my confidence to speak up on related topics. I've taken multiple courses, and I appreciate the wealth of knowledge I've gained from the instructors. The breakout rooms for meetings are another feature I find valuable because they allow me to collaborate with other professionals and discuss how certain topics come up. Additionally, I find it helpful to have a vast list of courses to choose from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'd like to see a board to review old courses I've taken before with notes that were kept. The notes the instructor uses can be kept by the participants so we can review them after the course has been completed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Hone is how interactive and practical the sessions are. The instructors create a safe, supportive space where people actually talk through real scenarios instead of just listening to theory. The frameworks are simple enough to remember, but specific enough that I can plug my own situations into them right away. I also appreciate the accountability of live workshops and the mix of perspectives from different industries, which makes the discussions richer and helps me see my own challenges from new angles.

On the odd occasion, I find the pace a bit fast for deeper reflection, especially when we move quickly between breakout rooms, frameworks, and group discussion. It can feel like there isn’t quite enough time to sit with a concept and think about how it applies to my specific role. I’ve also noticed there are fewer session times that align well with my timezone and already busy calendar, which can make it harder to join consistently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

That the participants are not arrogant, and it feels like a safe space. This is critical, because it naturally inspires participation, dialog, understanding one another. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Based on the pressure from the workplace to participate in Hone, it often feels like "busy work." This is not a criticism for Hone, but it may impact how participants respond to Hone and to its classes. Nothing that I dislike about Hone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I used Hone training to be a better manager for my team. It has been helping me to be effective by providing strategies for managing, communicating, and leading my team. I also find it very helpful to cross-learn from the experiences of students in Hone classes who are from other organizations. I appreciate the frameworks introduced in classes and the breakout sessions that assist in expanding and deploying the frameworks further, which helps with learning and applying the discussed frameworks. They provide a safe space to practice Hone learnings, which I can then use in real life scenarios with my team. Hone classes have helped me to review constructive feedback in a better way and have helped me gain a better understanding of my direct-reports' mindsets and perspectives. This helps me to have better empathy with them. I also like the breakout and discussion sessions as they are interactive and help to further our learnings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would consider the sessions to be a bit longer to have enough time to thoroughly review and practice the topics being discussed. Sometimes a 1hr session seems a bit too short. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really love using Hone for leadership training. Their services fit the best for my leadership journey compared to others like LinkedIn Learning, Udemy, and O'Reilly. What's really good about Hone is that they try to understand business realities and challenges, and their coaches have real business experiences, working with different types of managers and teams. They offer soft skill development to technical skill development needed for managing a team well. I appreciate how all their methodologies work together, allowing us to brainstorm and find solutions that fit our current needs, rather than just receiving a ready-made solution. I find their focus on leader and professional development really well-aligned with what I need, and I'd love to continue and expand more on that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes, some trainings or workshops aren't available in certain time zones, and you need to plan in advance to attend. If something comes up and you can't attend, you have to wait months to get the same training available again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate Hone for providing coaching classes as part of our organization initiatives to help us be better managers. These management classes are incredibly helpful in tackling a variety of topics, like learning how to handle difficult challenges in management, structuring teams, conducting reviews, and addressing specific management problems. Hone has been instrumental in boosting our team productivity and has helped me become a better leader. I like that they provide a mental framework for doing reviews and structuring teams, which makes our organization more structurally sound. Each class includes coursework that helps with preparation, along with real-world examples discussed with other attendees, which I find very useful for practice. The concept of setting follow-through goals is great as it keeps you honest and encourages acting on what you've learned. I particularly like the classes that involve different organizations, where I get to interface with folks in slightly different but related situations, offering different perspectives, which is really nice.

Sometimes classes have overlapping content so it can feel a bit repetitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate the training sessions with Hone as they genuinely help me in my day-to-day role. They provide different ideas on how to do better and be more productive. The expertise of the trainers stands out; they're highly qualified and articulate clearly, which really helps me understand the courses and apply them in real life. There's a great array of training sessions available, and I'm very interested in many of them. They're also easy to connect to and very to the point and clear when conducting the trainings.

I wish there was more tracking to that invisibility in the AI sessions. Maybe for management to see that people are actually using that feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Hone for personal and professional development, focusing on soft skills like team dynamics and hard skills such as productivity. It helps me with team dynamics, becoming a better leader, and building executive presence and emotional intelligence. I find the live classes to be great, and the AI training agents are pretty cool too. There's a wealth of resources available, with decks downloadable and lots of helpful workbooks. The teachers in the courses seem engaging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes I don't want to be camera on or engage in small breakout groups, but every session is formatted that way. There is some benefit to just having the course on and not being 100% engaged because I take these courses during the workday. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how Hone teaches a framework and then asks you to do practical exercises, followed by reflecting on what you learned and how you applied the lesson. It's a very hands-on approach that connects practical experience with theoretical knowledge. I really like the personalized approach, the instructor knew all of our names, and it felt like a back-and-forth conversation. I would encourage Hone to continue seeking empathetic instructors with lots of experience who truly understand what it's like to be both an employee and a manager in a large, complex organization.

The time to discuss with peers in the breakout rooms was too short and sometimes you didn't have time to cover all of your reflections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
