Skill management is emerging as the core responsibility of HR and talent management organizations. It involves answering key business questions around the skills available in an organization, how they are being used, the skills needed for the future, and how to bridge skill gaps. Individuals also need to take ownership of and manage their own skills.

Our webinar with Claude Werder at Brandon Hall on 5 Strategies to Transform HR drew an engaged audience who had many questions. We answer them here.

Performance management will be enriched by skill intelligence. Understanding core and target skills, fostering their development drives performance.
