Madeleine Collins covers the trends in HR because the future of work is constantly evolving. One of the trends that I found interesting is that employees are actively seeking out upskilling opportunities in their workplace. This shows that our workforce is motivated, passionate, and wants to improve their skills. Despite everything that has happened with the economy over the last few years, people still want to be the best worker possible! #HRTrends #Upskilling

AHRI article today on data driven future of Hr "According to a Gartner survey, 81 per cent of talent analytics leaders state that it’s important for their team to be proficient in strategic consulting. However, less than half (47 per cent) are currently satisfied with their team’s proficiency." For my Hr colleagues, time we started teaching our teams how to coach, understand what drives business success, facilitate and mediate prickly conversations and learning the best way to ask 'why?' - I didn't truly understand these basic consulting tools until I actually started consulting. *and* I wish I'd learned these techniques at the start of my career. #robservation

Is your organization using recruiting as the primary way to address skills gaps? McLean & Company's 2024 HR Trends Report data confirms this to be true for most HR Leaders. Selecting candidates based largely on expertise in functional skills, though, runs the risk of those very skills becoming outdated in a few years, requiring reskilling. Use workforce planning and succession planning to anticipate which skills your organization will need in the future and build a leadership pipeline of employees with the appropriate skills.
