Case Study: Kontoor Brands builds an engaged global leadership community with Howspace

Kontoor Brands builds a global leadership community across 50+ countries with Howspace

Kontoor Brands, an apparel company with 15,000 employees across 50+ countries, faced significant challenges in its leadership development programs. The initiatives were disconnected and failed to build community, leading to low engagement and high digital fatigue from their passive, input-driven LMS. Kontoor Brands partnered with Howspace to address this core challenge of uniting their scattered global leaders.

Using the Howspace platform, Kontoor Brands created a centralized digital space that combined live sessions with self-paced activities and discussions. This solution placed social and peer learning at its core, providing the flexibility needed for a global team. The results were immediate: engagement skyrocketed to the point that leaders requested longer virtual sessions, and a strong global community was formed. Howspace enabled a continuous learning culture that drove real business impact.
