Mutual Readiness – Workers and employers must realize common aspirations in the new workplace.

• Prepare for change – Implement a long‐term strategy and clearly communicate to employees well in advance.
• Reimagine work – Start by assessing tasks needed, then map internal capabilities to these before developing new skills needed to bridge talent gaps.
• Use AI to tap potential – AI algorithms can help identify hidden talents and transferrable skills, helping to make the most of existing talent.

Accelerated Ability – Provide workers with the latest resources to rapidly enhance human skills.

• Use scientific methods – Such as neuroscience techniques to improve the effectiveness of learning, especially for more experienced workers.
• Use smart technologies – Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) can improve levels of immersion, enable people to experience real situations, and reduce the cost of training.
• Teach each other – Encourage employees to foster new skills through peer-to-peer learning. This includes teaching, mentoring or helping to design learning materials.

Shared Value – Create a culture that values education and lifelong learning.

• Create a sense of wellbeing about change – Give people time to adapt and prepare for new forms of work, recognizing individual needs.
• Co-fund learning – Enable people to pursue their choice of skills development by subsidizing training programs with external stakeholders.
• Encourage lifelong learning – Track performance outcomes and levels of engagement. Combine skills training with support to navigate new career pathways.
