Hybrid models of learning is here to stay
also likely to change every six months
the new dynamic world demands agile talent up-gradation
more so with challenges posed by the Covid pandemic
being comfortable with change is now inevitable...
Reskilling today an imperative
both for business and for personal growth
establishing the common ground and purposes
showing employee a career development opportunity
focusing on the long time career, transparent decision making
are all the need of the hour!
Not only acquiring skills for a job
but also adjacent skills , connected to profession
skills holistically connected with company
learning, engaging in doing new things
are all part of the new demands!
As long term strategy, up-skill mindset, skill set
and tool sets like technology enablers
freedom and opportunity for continuous learning
encouraging internal movements, projects and assignments!
Employees now responsible for own skill building
play facilitator, making them aware of 'where we are now'
'what new things coming in next 3 months'
help them decide on their own learning priorities
learning bite size, tailor made to own needs and pace...
The key employee mantra for hybrid world would be
go ahead - continue to learn continuously
learn this, learn that, learn whatever you want
but learn!
