Context
Employee upskilling, reskilling, and reassignment tasks each have different purposes and goals; realistically employees will need guidance when they either upskill, reskill, or become reassigned due to organizational or technological changes within their work environment(s). Constant technological and operational changes, competitive pressures, and the natural evolution of processes in the workplace often lead to a need to upskill, reskill, or reassign employees. Talent managers need to play an active role in all of these employee reinvestment and retention efforts.
