Skills-Shifting: Redesigning Work for 2027
Work is changing faster than talent systems. Is yours keeping up?
The skills organizations need are moving faster than many talent systems can keep up. Leaders can see the shift happening, but many don’t feel ready for it:
- 78% say not enough people are prepared for how work will be done in the future.
- 81% say traditional assumptions about "future-proof" jobs are being challenged.
- 91% expect employees to take greater ownership of career development.
That raises some uncomfortable questions.
We’ll address:
- What happens when a job changes faster than the organization can redesign it?
- How do you build pipelines when careers no longer follow predictable paths?
- How can managers lead change when they don’t have a clear map?
- And should talent functions join together for better outcomes?
Join Korn Ferry experts and client leaders for a live discussion on what skills-shifting means for the future of the talent function. Through a mix of expert perspectives and client experiences, we'll explore how organizations are responding and where the biggest challenges lie.
Leave with practical ideas for preparing your organization for what's next.
