How to Shift Your Organization From Jobs To Skills-based

Nearly nine in 10 executives (89%) say skills are becoming more important for the way organizations define work, deploy talent, manage careers, and value employees. At the same time, many leaders are unclear about what skills they need to prioritize now and in the future—only 41% of executives and managers have a sense of what roles are likely to be disrupted and require reskilling.

The benefits of a skills-based workforce are well established, so why are organizations still revising old job descriptions, mishiring, and making a beeline for talent marketplaces without a solid skills foundation? It’s simple: they’re trapped in an endless, jobs-based loop because they lack the necessary skills intelligence.
