Using Oracle Dynamic Skills, Learning Cloud and Grow to increase your organization’s skills

In today’s age, an organization’s competitive advantage relies on its ability to equip, empower and elevate the talent and skills of their workforce within an ever-evolving global landscape. As the workforce and job market continue to be shaped by technological advancements, and career mobility shows to be more complex than just up or out, organizations must adapt accordingly. Human Resources (HR) leaders are becoming increasingly focused on a more sustainable approach to maintaining a competitive edge – improving the talent they already have. By collecting and analyzing skills data, it becomes possible to strategically develop the existing workforce, while also refining how external talent is identified, evaluated and attracted.

By incorporating Oracle’s career development tools, HR teams and business leaders can collaborate more effectively on a single, integrated platform that aligns individual growth with organizational priorities. Additionally, employees benefit from clear development paths, possible via updated skills insights, defining role expectations and closing talent gaps in real time, to keep the business forward thinking and agile.

Baker Tilly's recommendation for an approach

At Baker Tilly, we believe there’s no strict order for implementation when upskilling your workforce. Instead, we see it as a strategic blend of initiatives that address your unique business needs. While empowering employees to drive their own development is key, we also recognize that the foundation of successful upskilling begins with clearly defined job roles and responsibilities.

If these roles are too broad or not well-defined, the immediate priority may be to focus on manager-led upskilling. This ensures your leadership team is equipped to support skill development across the organization. We continue to champion and guide the many who are exploring the integration of advanced technologies like artificial intelligence (AI), driving greater efficiency and innovation.
