Why skills matter more than ever

Let’s not sugarcoat it—your workforce either keeps up or gets left behind. With AI accelerating change and 42% of skills shifting in just five years, the question isn’t whether you should use skill data. It’s how soon you can start.

Here’s what the data says:

Percentage-81

of data-driven orgs are more operationally efficient and see 77% higher revenue gains.

Percentage-107_v2
