Future Skills Recruiting Future with Matt Alder

It's becoming evident that we are at a critical pivot point for talent acquisition. While the debates around AI are sucking up most of the attention, massive shifts are happening in terms of the shelf life of skills, ongoing challenges with skills acquisition, and upskilling people for a very different future world of work.
So, how should employers think about skills, and how can talent acquisition gain the future focus it needs to drive organizational value?
My guest this week is Lisa Monteith, Head of Talent Acquisition and onboarding for HSBC UK. In our wide-ranging conversation, we talk about the skills challenges facing organizations and the importance of taking a long-term view.
In the interview, we discuss:

Current talent acquisition challenges

Selling work as a product

The shortening lifespan of skills

Providing easy access to learning

Total talent thinking

Learning agility, curiosity, and other skills for the future

Failing education systems and disappearing entry-level jobs

Individual responsibility for learning
