How to prepare people for the future organization - Benchmarking Free Download

We are living and working today in a rush of material changes.

Organizations open wide gaps between the capabilities and knowledge of the people in the organization and the changing needs of the roles and tasks.

To address the need to enable the right people, at the right place, in the right place and with the right capabilities, we see development, training and learning teams engaging in cutting-edge discourses and tools at the forefront of human resources in Israel and around the world.

This process takes us to new work districts, which include Reskilling, Upskilling, Future Skills, Career Centers, Job Identification and Abilities that disappear and / or are created, etc.

We have gathered for a large learning meeting 7 large organizations with innovative and diverse work in this area.
