In an era where the demand for top talent is rapidly outpacing supply, organisations are increasingly turning to comprehensive upskilling and reskilling to bridge the gap. However, traditional organisational structures, competency frameworks and job architectures often lack the flexibility needed to meet evolving business demands, leaving HR functions struggling to keep pace. This panel discussion, "Democratising Talent Management: Leveraging Skills to Get Ahead," will explore how empowering business leaders to take ownership of talent management, with the involvement of employees in shaping their skills and career paths, can drive retention and agility.

By enabling managers and employees to self-serve on skills and talent, HR professionals can adopt a broader strategic focus, leveraging advanced analytics to inform executive decisions and ensure organisational resilience in terms of future skills and talent needed. Join us to discover the latest technology developments, actionable AI strategies, and data-driven decision-making approaches that will redefine HR’s role as a strategic advisor on talent in the age of AI.

Learn from the world’s top Talent and L&D Executives who are embracing AI tools to harmonise, analyse, and transform this data into actionable insights that redefine their organisation’s operations.
