Future of work & skills development

It's known that technological changes such as automation and AI are transforming the skills required in the workforce and skills such as creativity, problem solving and critical thinking are becoming more important. I'm interested to your views on: a) what do you think is the role of HR and the wider organisation in supporting workers in gaining these skills vis-a-vis their own responsibility in gaining these specific skills, b) how do you measure these specific skills in the hiring process outside of the standard interview questions c) how do you encourage lifelong learning in your organisation for people to improve in these specific areas?hiring

    I think people have been stating that sort of thing, correctly or incorrectly ever since the tractor replaced the horse on farms and probably since the industrial revolution.

    Sort of question academics ask of students every year I'd say. Bit difficult to 'train people in creativity problem solving and critical thinking. They have always been important.
