The role of a universal skills framework in the future of work

Many organizations don’t know what skills they need (now, or for the future), or how to develop them. Equally, employees don’t know the skills they should learn or the career paths available to them, which oftentimes results in employees voting with their feet, through lack of motivation or progression.

There’s also plenty of evidence of where a poor understanding of skills required for new talent, has led to poor hiring decisions and the consequential implications that ensue these.

Evidentially, many organizations are struggling to make the shift to skills as the currency of their talent ecosystem. At the same time, legacy competency models and job architectures still abound. Can the two co-exist? Should they?

In this session, with UNLEASH and Eightfold AI, we’ll discuss how organizations can have just that. We’ll also identify tangible ways companies can establish a common language around skills to help break down silos in talent management.
