Why skills are at the heart of attracting and retaining talent
Today’s biggest challenge for CHROs and HR leaders is attracting and retaining talent. In this video, Cornerstone’s Chief Learning Officer Marc Ramos shares why skills are at the heart of solving the growing talent crisis. Here are some of his key takeaways.
- Being able to see how you can learn new things, progress and grow personally and professionally in an organisation is an attraction.
- Managers are responsible for helping the team grow and grow themselves. It’s also their responsibility to block and protect the time for development.
