About the EVENT
About the session:
Scaling generative AI presents unique challenges, especially with workforce readiness. IT leaders must upskill teams while fostering AI adoption across diverse generations with varying tech familiarity. The AI talent shortage compounds this issue, with only 1 in 10 UK workers possessing essential AI skills. Many organisations rely on outdated training models or narrow technical qualifications, which don’t address real-world needs.
This dynamic session will tackle key concerns about talent acquisition and retention in the age of AI, offering practical strategies for developing a workforce equipped to thrive in today’s evolving tech landscape.
Key discussion points include:
- Why continuous learning and adaptability are essential as AI reshapes the tech
industry
● The value of hiring individuals outside of just traditional tech backgrounds, and why
soft skills matter more than ever
● AI is often discussed as a single technology. In practice, machine learning is very
different from intelligent automation and very different from leveraging GenAI for
productivity improvements. All require distinctly different skillsets and diverse teams.
● Why models that build and deliver a long-lasting, permanent capability for businesses
is important for making businesses self-relaint
● Practical steps for building a workforce agile enough to adopt AI effectively
