Over the past five years, leaders have become increasingly aware of the strategic shifts in learning and development. Research shows that over 40% of employees need upskilling, and it takes an average of 2.5 years to fully develop new skills. This means companies must view upskilling as a long-term goal, continuously encouraging employee growth alongside other business objectives. However, higher turnover rates create unique challenges for upskilling programs. The big questions for corporate leaders: - How can we promote employee longevity through upskilling? - How can we align skilling initiatives with long-term strategy? These will be critical focuses for organizations in the coming years. #Upskilling #Innovation #L&D #Leadership
