Building a Learning Culture That Ripples Across ProPetro

ProPetro Services, an oilfield services company based in Midland, Texas, has built a learning culture that spreads on its own. LeAnn Gorden, a learning and development specialist at ProPetro, and her team send out courses monthly and highlight them through themed spotlights that mix cultural awareness content with professional development.

When the team needs something ProPetro-specific, like training tied to performance evaluations, they build it themselves in OpenSesame. The ease of creating and rolling out that training is what lets it spread so quickly through the company. As LeAnn puts it, "The advice I would give to other organizations to prepare on what's next is to just dive in, have a learning culture, be aggressive with it, and make it fun and exciting. It's contagious and it will ripple down through the company."
