How to Create Agile Organisations with Skills and AI

Too often, skills-based initiatives are implemented without clear use cases or business impact in mind. In this episode, we challenge that approach.Many skills programs fail because they are disconnected from business needs and are difficult to implement. It’s not the technology, it’s the approach. Skills programs must be integrated into the daily workflow where learning happens. To explore what makes this work, I spoke with Loïc Michel, CEO of 365Talents. Loïc has spent years developing AI-powered solutions that help organisations identify, develop, and mobilise skills within their workforce.We discuss why the foundation must be skills data, how AI brings agility, and why transformation is more than just talent mobility. After this discussion, it’s clear that without the right skills data and technology, even the best intentions won’t lead to meaningful change.Some curious takeaways:Design skills programs that are agile and in the flow of work, not once-a-year initiativesLeverage AI to make skills data easily accessible across the organisationFocus on continuous feedback and iteration to create a measurable impact on talent mobilityEpisode highlights:(00:00) Welcome to Harald’s Curious Corner(01:05) The power of curiosity in transformation of skills and AI(04:36) The journey from mapping skills to redefining talent mobility(06:24) Why skills first is the only sustainable blueprint(11:38) How global companies are building skills-based organisations(14:31) The importance of learning and skills integration(22:12) How AI is supercharging the future of skills and workforce intelligence(25:33) Adapting skills transformation across cultures and business units(29:01) How skills-based platforms are tackling real business challenges(34:23) Why skills are the new currency(36:05) Scaling the vision for a unified learning and skills platform(38:18) Curious Corner TakeawaysConnect with the guests:Loïc Michel on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/loicmichel/ Explore 365Talents: https://365talents.com/en/ Follow me on the following sites:Harald Overaa on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/haraldovera/ Subscribe to Harald’s Newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/6901795950403186688/
