Launching a skills pilot is relatively easy. Scaling it across an enterprise is where the real complexity begins.
As organizations move beyond isolated experiments, they face a new set of questions:
This is a discussion-driven session for practitioners actively designing, piloting, or scaling skills-based talent practices—not a presentation or vendor demonstration.
Join us for an early look at RedThread Research’s latest study on skills maturity in the AI era.
RedThread researchers will share emerging findings on how organizations are approaching skills, how their efforts are evolving, and what outcomes they are achieving. Together, we’ll explore where organizations are making progress, what distinguishes more mature approaches, where skills initiatives continue to stall, and how AI is changing the requirements for enterprise skills strategies.
This will be an interactive, peer-level roundtable—not a traditional webinar. Participants will be invited to react to the findings, compare them with their own experiences, and discuss the implications for skills strategy, data, technology, governance, talent practices, and workforce planning.
Designed for senior HR, Talent, Learning, Workforce Planning, HR Technology, and skills leaders.
Skills Strategy 2027: From Skills Data to Workforce Decisions
Organizations have invested heavily in skills taxonomies, data, marketplaces, and technology. Now a harder question is emerging: what workforce decisions are these investments supposed to improve?
As AI reshapes work, leaders need to turn skills data into better decisions about talent, capability, and investment.
We’ll explore:
If your organization has moved beyond asking “Should we become more skills-based?” and is now asking “How should skills actually improve the decisions we make about our workforce?”, this conversation is for you.
Most organizations have invested heavily in understanding workforce skills and identifying capability gaps. But once a critical gap is clear, what happens next? Should you hire, develop existing talent, redeploy people with adjacent skills, bring in external expertise, or redesign the work with AI?
Building on January’s discussion, this session will introduce a simple workforce capability decision model, then work through a practical capability-gap scenario together. We’ll compare how organizations weigh tradeoffs across cost, speed, risk, and future demand, what skills intelligence those decisions require, and who should own them across HR, Finance, Technology, and the business.
This is a peer discussion, not a presentation. The goal isn’t one universal answer, but a clearer view of the information and judgment needed to make better workforce decisions.
