Why should you be thinking about a skills-powered strategy? According to research, the biggest challenges in 2024 are solving for talent agility and designing sustainable people practices.
This is a supplemental workbook to the implementing a skills-powered strategy...one iteration at a time webinar. In this content, we introduce four sprints to achieve results in delivering skills at scale, including defining the organization's unique purpose, engaging with stakeholders, building a roadmap, and activating through pilots. This workbook aims to provide exercises and practical advice, strategies, and examples to help you get started with delivering skills at scale.

Create
a clear use case for your employees
