Creating a lunch and learn program at your office is one of the best ways to engage your employees and provide opportunities for training and development.

If you go to the trouble of planning a lunch and learn event, you want to make sure people actually show up. Providing incentives like free lunch or an additional “free” hour at the end of the week can be a great place to start. If you want to start a truly successful program at your office, develop lunch and learn topics that actually excite and engage your coworkers.
