Over the last few years, I have had countless conversations with business and people leaders on the topic of skills. In response to the ever-increasing pace of change, more and more organisations are turning towards skill-based approaches to managing talent. The common challenge these organisations are solving for is how to effectively source, deploy, and develop talent in a future-fit way.

While the concept of “skill-based organisations” may be the newest workplace buzzword, few organisations have truly succeeded in adopting this new operating model around work. Shifting to a skillbased approach is a significant transformation for a workforce to undergo.
