Description

Managers reskill their teams, to meet today’s needs. Leaders think ahead, for the futuristic long-term needs of their organization and the overall ecosystem to excel and reap the benefits of Digital Transformation we are undergoing - “neoskilling” in short. Neoskilling is holistic and beyond formal class-room training, requiring a mental metamorphosis. It includes soft skills, cultural aspects and instills a higher-order thinking in individuals and groups in preparation for the Workplace of the Future. Leaders must avoid a strategically Myopic, INtellectually IMpoverished, Ethically Challenged, obtuse management approach, ensuring that they do not fall into the MINIMEC trap as they undertake this journey. For influencers and policymakers, neoskilling helps in socially inclusive growth, taking digitization and its benefits beyond corporates to every section of the society and for employability.
