Building Tomorrow’s Talent Today

As companies pivot in new strategic directions, CEOs and CHROs are grappling with the challenge of ensuring that they have the right talent in place to support their ambitious goals.

Upskilling and reskilling current employees and acquiring future skills are key strategic priorities not just for HR but also for business leaders. Skills are the new gold. Companies that can assess the skills of their people and develop these further will have a distinct competitive advantage.

Key questions that we will tackle: 

  • What are the critical future skills that your company will need to develop and/or acquire to win in an increasingly complex and competitive environment? How can these be developed?
  • What does it mean to move to a skills-based approach to Human Capital development? 
  • How can you partner within the ecosystem with government, academia, and solution providers to drive future skills? 

Join us at the Future Skills Asia conference, where CHROs, Heads of Talent, and L&D leaders from across the region will converge to tackle these questions.

Exchange ideas. Learn and share. Forge meaningful connections. All this and more awaits you. We look forward to welcoming you in Singapore!

Who Should Attend: 

CHROs/Regional Heads of HRs, Heads of Talent and Heads of L&D
