New initiatives like digitalisation can impact certain jobs and require new capabilities. There will be a need to retrain and redeploy staff to other roles and other parts of the organisation. But where and what?
Embarking on new directions for the growth and development of the organisation can impact the overall plan for competency development for current and future human resource needs.

Identifying appropriate knowledge and skills for competency development in line with the future growth and development of the organisation
Anchoring competency development as a strategic goal
Promoting the benefits of workplace learning through various channels and platforms internally
