Building skills and creating communities
With the talent market the tightest we've ever seen, hiring for capability, providing upskilling pathways and creating communities within organisations is essential to attract and retain the best people.
In this session I will share practical tips, resources and frameworks that I've developed and used in my previous tech leadership, HR and most recently training specialist roles to help you implement best practices regardless of the technology stack you are using.
