In an era of rapid technological advancement and shifting market demands, the workforce readiness gap is a pressing concern for organisations across all industries.

The hopes and fears of employees were laid bare in a PwC report last month which showed that more than half of employees feel there is too much change happening concurrently.

More than a third have experienced significant change to their role in the past year, including having to use new tools and technologies (45%), changes to team structures (41%) and changes to daily responsibilities (40%).

Watch on-demand

This Personnel Today webinar, in association with Cornerstone, explores how HR can play a pivotal role in bridging this readiness gap, ensuring we build a skilled and agile workforce ready to meet the challenges of tomorrow.

Personnel Today editor Rob Moss is joined by an expert panel including Luke Hicks, regional director, Kate Graham, HR insights director, and Rebecca McKenzie, SMB consultant for Cornerstone.

This free 60-minute webinar will help you identify areas where the workforce readiness gap is most pronounced. We look at how HR can design and implement effective L&D, performance and mobility programmes, and explore tools to support workforce agility.

Watch now to learn how you can create a culture of continuous learning, fostering an environment where upskilling and reskilling are integral parts of employee development.

In the free webinar, which includes an audience Q&A, attendees can:

  • Gain actionable insights on how to close the workforce readiness gap
  • Learn about workforce agility and how it can support your organisation to excel
  • Hear from experts speaking with UK employers every day sharing what they see in the market
  • Receive access to the research on UK workforce readiness and a copy of Cornerstone’s Workforce Agility for Dummies.
