Re-evaluating Your Organization's Skill Gaps BizLibrary
Many companies have fallen victim to the ominous skills gap – but only because it’s easier to place blame somewhere else than to address the issue head on. If you’re struggling to find qualified candidates, you might need to take a deeper look at your organization and ask some pointed questions. Are there areas of the recruiting process that are leading to skill gaps? Has a formal assessment been done to uncover skill gaps? Are you using modern learning methods to bridge gaps by upskilling your current workforce?
Join Katie Miller from BizLibrary in this SHRM webcast to re-evaluate potential root causes of your organization’s skill gaps and discuss what can be done to fill them efficiently. In this webinar, you will learn:
- The factors that could be contributing to your skill gaps, and how to find and address the root causes
- How to re-evaluate what a “qualified candidate” is in order to create more relevant and realistic talent expectations
- How to start uncovering your organization’s skill gaps with a formal assessment
- How to use modern training methods to bridge skill gaps by upskilling your workforce

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

(Government)
Access to Work funding can be accessed by intern

45. Making change happen – So why aren’t more
people and businesses making change happen?
Is the effort really worth it?
DISSATISFACTION – Really do get
it & willing to do something about it?
DESIRABILITY – See the clear and
compelling individual, societal and
business-benefit case?
DISRUPTION – Can see a way of
making it work that actually creates
enterprise value
“The No.1 Barrier to employing
disabled people is fear and lack of
knowledge by line managers”
The Beckhard & Harris change
formula is a concise way of capturing
the process of change and identifying
the factors that need to be strongly in
place for change to happen:
= Change
= Level of DISSATISFACTION with
the status quo (7%)
= DESIRABILITY of proposed
change or future end state (70%+)
= Practicality of the change
(minimal risk and DISRUPTION)
= ‘Cost’ of changing
Change readiness
46. Six sequential / predictable concerns and
some of the most frequently asked questions
1. Information – What is the change;
Why is it needed; What is wrong
with the way things are now?
2. Personal – How will it impact me?
3. Implementation – What do I do
fist? Second? Third? i.e. How do I
make it happen?
4. Impact – Is it really worth it?
5. Collaboration
6. Refinement
Some of the most frequently asked
questions:
How much does it cost?
What will I need?
How does it work?
Where can it go wrong?
Who can help me?

SECRETS OF SUCCESS
When we look back over the last
few years, its hard to believe just
how successful we have been in
such a short space of time:
A handful of the right ‘can-do’
people and CSR foundations
External factors; partners and
best practices
Combined with a truly compelling
business case which made it
really easy to gain approval and
highly rewarding/engaging for
staff
We are now making considerable
progress towards our ambition of
becoming a more diversely talented
workforce that reflects the
communities in which we operate
49. Vital ‘must have’ ingredients –
How do I…?
• Visit EmployAbility or Project Search to
‘see it and get it’
• Leave here determined to make similar
changes happen in your organisation
Seeing is Believing
• Raises your level of ambition for better
outcomes (for all concerned)
• Provides more effective enterprise
strategies – Why wouldn't you?
Strategic Fit and Ambition
• Need to find an equally ambitious Post-
16 Provider and form partnership
• Work together to build relationship
Founding Partnership
• With first cohort of students, parents
and teachers, key enterprise leaders
and staff
Stakeholder Engagement
• Form project/operating teams
• Follow proven standard operating
model and approach
Building Momentum
• Remove barriers and focus in on Paid
employment and other outcomes
Focus in on Outcomes
• Protect the new ‘hidden talent’ pipeline
and plan for growth
Sustainability and Growth
50. Finding the right partner school or FE college
Schools/FE Colleges are a really important part of the picture
Across education there is a shared drive and passion to provide more work
based learning opportunities for students
They are inspiring and resourceful people, with the complementary skill-sets
necessary to achieve a real breakthrough in terms of education-employment
outcomes by working in partnership with businesses
Working together
Building these relationships - Encouraging some of your staff to get to
know them better (e.g. by working with them on community or business
enterprise days) is a good first-step
Strategic thinking together – Working in partnership you could develop a
supported employment strategy that involves your own business e.g. looking
at different supported employment options, different pathways and best
practices, what could you both offer?
Un-locking hidden talent – Partnership work will help your business to
benefit from hidden talent that will enrich your business

53. What does it cost?
53
Our initial 2013/14 pilot-year budget was zero (managed to start with
nothing), whereas for 2014/15 our ‘growth and sustainability’ budget was
£10k:
This seems a small investment to make for such a big and long-term
returns (individual, societal and business enterprise value)
• It is however possible to run with smaller budget e.g. Take out
conferences and ceremonies reduces cost to ~£5k
£1.5k Uniforms/clothing
£1.5k Work Inspiration Week
£1.5k Opening ceremonies (catering) – Solihull and Wokingham
£2.5k Graduation ceremonies (including appreciation awards)
£0.5k Promotions, publicity, leaflets etc.
£2.5k Events and conferences = £10k in total
54. What can go wrong?
No pain
There can be set backs but these have
been small scale e.g.
• Interns can need life-work coaching
(minor deviation to code of conduct)
• Very occasionally an intern can find
it ‘too much’ being in the workplace
• It is very important to be aware of
interns medical conditions
No gain!
• More diverse and enriched
workplace – more reflective of the
communities in which we operate
• Bonds and brings teams together
• Lifts employee engagement
• Hidden talent who really appreciate
the opportunities

57. Five key ‘take-aways’ from the conference
Increased level of ambition & belief that things can be much better in
terms of paid employment (hidden talent) outcomes & creating value
Find the right people (no more than a handful of disability champions)
who have the personal passion & drive to make change happen
Finding the right school or FE college partner(s) is vitally important to
your success – start speaking to some of them & find the right partner
Link an effective supported employment strategy to your own
business strategies
Focus on delivering sustainable outcomes & promote growth
