The pandemic has forced businesses across the globe to embrace new technology, business models, and customer expectations. This has stoked fears over for job security, as previously valued skill sets have been rendered insignificant or obsolete.

As firms are forced to adapt to a rapidly changing business landscape, they need to decide how their employees fit into this brave, new world. Many workers fear the worst, but acquiring new skill sets doesn’t have to mean cutting ties with old employees.
As a business leader, you have the ability to train workers to meet new challenges. Learn how you can better prepare your employees to meet the demands of modern businesses!
Upskilling
Upskilling is the process of learning new competencies that are considered relevant now, and that are likely to remain relevant. An upskilling program should reflect your company’s learning and development strategy.

Reskilling
Reskilling involves teaching employees an entirely new skill set to re-purpose their role at a company, when their old job becomes obsolete. For example, customer service reps may be reskilled to respond to customer inquiries through different modes of communication, like live chat. This may involve employees obtaining a new degree or certification.
Diversity
Firm leaders need to be mindful of whom they select for training programs, especially programs that are geared toward preparing employees for leadership roles. You may feel included to offer this opportunity to someone with whom you share a personal connection, but it’s important to extend the opportunity to everyone.
