CHALLENGE

Workforce relevance in changing times

The expectations of Telenet’s customers have radically changed over the last couple of years. The company needed a way to make sure its workforce reflects this transformation towards a more digital enterprise. To do so, they looked for a solution to show them which skills and competencies they already have in house, which future-oriented skills they lack, and what actions they can take to bridge the gap.
