🎯 2024 Unlocked - xUnlocked’s Year in Review ✨ As we wrap up 2024, we’re proud to announce a significant milestone: xUnlocked has successfully completed the SOC 2 Type I audit. This is a huge step in demonstrating our commitment to the highest standards of security, availability, and confidentiality in managing customer data.  🔒 What does SOC 2 Type I mean? The System and Organization Controls (SOC) 2 audit, developed by the AICPA, evaluates the design of systems and controls to ensure they meet the rigorous trust service criteria at a specific point in time.  We’re thrilled to share that xUnlocked’s audit was issued a “clean” opinion with no exceptions — a testament to our dedication to protecting client data and building trust.  💡 Why is this important? SOC 2 compliance is a critical benchmark for third-party service providers, ensuring that customer data is securely handled at all times. This milestone reflects our ongoing commitment to safeguarding data and delivering a seamless, secure experience for our partners and users.  A huge thank you to our team and partners for helping us achieve this! 🚀  #SustainabilityUnlocked #Security #SOC2 #Cybersecurity #Trust #DataProtection

🚀 Why are information skills essential for organisational agility, innovation, and success? While many organisations still focus on technical hard skills, the growing demand for human-centric power skills is reshaping workplace priorities. According to LinkedIn's Workplace Learning Report 2024, 91% of L&D professionals believe these skills are equally important. At the heart of power skills lies information skills — the ability to acquire, interpret, and apply knowledge across contexts. Employees with strong information skills are: ✔️ More adaptable to change. ✔️ Better collaborators across teams. ✔️ Empowered to make informed decisions aligned with organisational goals. In our latest insights, Prasad Gollakota, CFA, MAICD, Chief Content Officer at xUnlocked, delves into how these foundational skills are shaping resilient, innovative, and future-ready teams. 📖 Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/eFBMB5ny

📈 Setting Net Zero targets is now a standard for companies committed to a sustainable and resilient future. However, achieving a tangible impact from these targets is challenging. As governments and businesses work toward these goals, another critical race is underway — the race for green talent. Global demand for green skills surged 11.6% from 2023 to 2024, yet supply grew just 5.6%. Without focused upskilling, about half of green jobs could remain unfilled, creating a significant talent gap. With sustainability now integral to long-term value, the question becomes: How can businesses align their workforce with this new reality? ➡️ Explore more insights in this article by Henry White, CEO & Co-Founder of xUnlocked: https://lnkd.in/evbfQX4b #GreenSkills #NetZero #SustainabilityUnlocked #FutureWorkforce #ESG #Sustainability #Climatecorporate #Sustainabilitylearning #Sustainabilitytraining
