As business priorities evolve faster than roles, operating models, and curricula can keep pace, learning functions are being asked to deliver greater impact with less clarity on where critical capability gaps truly sit — or which investments will make the greatest difference. This bite‑sized seminar positions skills strategy as a foundational enabler of effective capability building, helping learning leaders reframe skills as a core business concern rather than a purely HR construct.
Designed as a short, interactive session, the seminar establishes a shared language and sense of urgency, enabling more confident, evidence‑based decision‑making grounded in skills data. Participants are encouraged to reflect on the business case for skills in their own organisation and consider how stronger skills signals can improve workforce readiness, resilience, and learning impact.

• Participants will:
• Build a shared understanding of why skills matter for capability building — beyond programmes and courses
• Develop a common language and practical framing to articulate the business case for skills
• Identify one concrete question about skills or capability that their learning function cannot currently answer
