With the global economy experiencing massive change, upskilling and reskilling have taken on a renewed sense of urgency. Success through these transitions requires major shifts in thinking about how hiring and employee development are done.

Shifting to a skills-focused approach is a viable solution to an evolving workforce dilemma.
