A talent revolution is underway, driven by shortages in skilled talent, rapidly evolving skills, increased automation, and AI integration. Employees and candidates demand personalized approaches, challenging traditional talent acquisition and management methods. Organizations that fail to adapt risk struggling to fill vital roles, encountering skill mismatches, and facing higher attrition rate as employees seek employers committed to their development. To navigate this dynamic landscape, skills intelligence platforms are essential. These platforms illuminate workforce capabilities, predict future skills needs, and uncover untapped talent pools, empowering organizations to foster a culture of continuous learning and match employees with opportunities that optimize their potential.

However, the evolving definition and the emergence of new technologies and platforms present challenges for HR and TA leaders striving to adopt a skills-first approach.
