Tackling the skills deficit head-on: Build skills internally, don’t buy externally

Tackling the skills deficit head-on: Build skills internally
L&D leaders today are faced with three main challenges when it comes to upskilling their workforce for future survival:
  • Identifying and cataloguing the skills that their employees possess
  • Determining the skills the organisation needs to ‘build’ or ‘buy’ to create the workforce they need for today and the future
  • Creating a self-driven learning ecosystem to bridge the skills gap

Whilst these issues face every L&D department, many larger cash-rich enterprises are tackling this challenge head-on to stay competitive, leaving other businesses with a looming problem for the upskilling, reskilling and cross-skilling of their workforce. This can make recruiting and retaining staff a real struggle.
