Expert view: Why a skills-based approach can transform your EVP
Companies that take a traditional jobs-based approach to organisational development can end up removing jobs and people, but that can have the adverse effect of damaging their employee value proposition (EVP) and leaving the remaining employees disengaged and overworked.
This can lead to increased sickness absence and benefit/insurance costs, because those companies didn’t also remove the work.
The alternative approach is to look at where work and skills can be redesigned to drive better company results, as well as being more engaging to employees.
Organisations will need to consider how AI can remove menial, repetitive work and how it can help to do things faster and better.
Future-focused organisations will need to identify the skills needed to drive productivity and then create the career paths and learning paths to enable employees to reskill towards higher-value work and skills.
