Understand your digital skills – why you need a skills framework
Do you know what digital skills you have, and what skills you need, to drive your success?
What's it all about?
With so many organisations undergoing a digital transformation, and with new types of IT and digital roles being created every day, the need for both individuals and organisations to think about professional development in more structured and consistent way is becoming critical for individuals and employers alike.
SFIA – the Skills Framework for the Information Age – continues to grow in use across NZ and the region and is proving to be an invaluable to tool for both organisations and individuals to help shape thinking around skills and capability.
Drawing on consulting experience that includes the macro view of organisational capability (e.g. designing the organisational view of digital capabilities) and combines this with insights from one-on-one conversations for staff affected by transformational change, this talk will highlight some of the ways that using a structured skills framework can help you think about your own professional development, and how your organisation could provide additional support for staff professional development.
