The past few years have seen unprecedented levels of change in not only how we work, but the skills we need to succeed. If there’s one takeaway from recent years of workplace transformation, it’s that what you know doesn’t matter half as much as how effectively you can learn, un-learn and relearn.
Our 2024 Guide to Critical Skills explores a selection of skills sessions formulated by The Smarty Train’s team of futurists, learning design specialists and behavioural scientists, aimed at providing a foundation for people to be exceptional at work in the face of constant change
The guide also features supporting case studies from our upskilling partnerships with pioneering global brands, including Bupa, Premier Foods, and Vodafone.
