“The term “skills-based organization” has created market confusion for HR leaders, business leaders, and technology vendors. We’re looking forward to hosting a series of sessions that demystify the topic of skills into practical, actionable steps to unlocking the power of skills as a workforce analysis approach and a powerful problem-solving tool.”?– Andy Biladeau, SVP of Advisory Services, The Josh Bersin Company??

The first session will focus on Building a Skills Strategy, with Shawna Shelor, HR Director, Enterprise Capabilities, Baker Hughes and Lawrence Stevens, Director, Learning Solutions, Micron. The term "Skills-Based Organization" has created a lot of buzz lately, and this session will help you decipher hype from reality and get started on your own skills journey.?

Next, in a TED-style format, the second session will cover Defining Skills Taxonomies & Governance, with Stuart Logan, Managing Director Of HR, Operations, Technology, and People Experience, BNY Mellon.

*Note: Generative AI will feature prominently in many sessions at Irresistible 2023, therefore it is logical for us to use to create this post using OpenAI’s, ChatGPT. We love how descriptive the Generative AI summary is, yet edits by human experts at The Josh Bersin Company were necessary to capture the tone and essence we sought for the message.
