How can employees put their transportable skills to use in times of change? Eva Sage-Gavin, Senior Managing Director of Global Talent & Organization / Human Potential Practice at Accenture joins Kelly to discuss the work she is doing to help businesses reskill their employees to put their transportable skills to use in new roles. Learn about Eva’s wide career in skillifying and skills building, what she feels is important about skills training, and how we can identify the transportable skills we have to apply them to new job tasks.  

Eva believes one of the greatest skills right now is the ability to have a safe, clean environment where there's little risk of infection. 

Big Takeaways: 

  • Creating pathways for skill reinvention allows everyone to be employed with a little bit of training and logical support. 
  • the wonderful thing about artificial intelligence and the ability to analyze is you can see signals of skills experiences that can be converted into a core skill baseline 
  • modern HR should embrace the idea that you have to look at a whole person, not just employability or financial, but relational, wellness, and physical safety
