Jobs are being automated at an intense pace,1 making an ability to reskill, adapt, and assume new roles the top-ranked employee characteristics for navigating the future of work.2 This widespread transformation signals the need for a shift in the way organizations approach talent optimization from the traditional siloed approach to a big-picture perspective. Organizations must shrewdly manage and empower human capital through high-level business and operational strategies if they wish to stay ahead of the pack.

Following a sequential format, you’ll find out how to answer the crucial questions facing workforce management today: from talent acquisition and role alignment to learning and development. By the end of the six-week program, you’ll create your own practical action plan to prepare for the future of work.
