Modern organizations face an ever-expanding skill deficit across all levels of their workforce. Nearly one-third of the skills needed for a job in 2018 were irrelevant by 2022.

Many human resources leaders worry they can’t develop skill-building solutions quickly enough to meet the demands of their industry.

Companies that meet these obstacles head on and proactively analyze and address their organizational skills gaps will find opportunity in the challenge. Having Keystone as your partner ensures your organization does just that.

Transform your organization by creating a culture of skill-based learning with Keystone Partners.

Skirting the Skill Deficit with Cross-Organizational Talent Development

In the face of a global skill deficit, successful organizations are developing talent strategies that prioritize skills and competencies. Doing so creates a more dynamic workforce that values resilience as much as productivity and adaptiveness as much as efficiency.

These new-world organizations cultivate a forward-looking and employee-focused culture with proactive solutions, including:

A Growth-Focused Talent Bench

Successful companies train managers to look inward for talent opportunities, yet many HR leaders don’t effectively develop mid-level managers. Keystone Partners’ Leadership Development programs build a sustainable talent bench of future leaders.

Access to Development Opportunities

When offered Career Development opportunities, 94% of employees will stay with their company longer. An investment in flexible skill solutions is an investment in retention.

Clear Advancement Paths

When employees can visualize a future with their organization, it’s statistically more likely they will advance within their company. Promotional transparency multiplies the effectiveness of our skill-building programs.

A Culture of Mentorship

Organizations are five times more likely to evolve successfully when their leaders model and mentor the changes they ask their employees to adopt. A culture of mentorship facilitates skill-sharing and growth.

Empowered Leadership

When you invest in your leaders, they take up your organizational torch and help turn purpose into action across your organization, including developing progressive skill sets.

Inclusive Culture

Building skills isn’t just a matter of learning facts, but of embracing creative and innovative thinking in order to ideate new solutions. An inclusive culture where all voices are heard is an integral strategy in skill building.
