What does the concept of \u201cemployability\u201d mean?<\/h2>\n

Is it being simply being \u201cemployable\u201d ? The term, if we have the courage to say it, describes a current reality in a way that is both obsolete and unattractive.<\/h3>\n

Let\u2019s talk about \u201ctransferable skills\u201d for a 4.0 world, since that\u2019s what it\u2019s all about !<\/p>\n

The goal of this \u201ctransfer\u201d is to give employees the opportunity to anticipate their own future and to pro-actively position themselves when faced with a changing world, thus facilitating the transition to new ways of working.<\/p>\n

For a company, it is about ensuring that the skills it needs\u2014and that are constantly evolving\u2014can be mobilized quickly and effectively with necessary agility<\/p>\n

EPFL President, Martin Vetterli<\/a>, crecently compared future developments to nature\u2019s \u201ctsunamis\u201d.<\/p>\n

Must we remind ourselves of our existing context?: Volatility and uncertainty characterized by the acceleration of increasingly complex economic dynamics; the arrival on the market of artificial intelligence, hyper connectivity (IoT \u2013 Internet of Things) and, at the same time, \u201cdigitalization\u201d which is growing exponentially in efficiency and conquering more and more areas.<\/p>\n

These major changes in our environment are an opportunity for companies and employees to find the most relevant way to ensure that their skills are systematically updated, while taking into account the perspectives and challenges of tomorrow.<\/p>\n

If, in a self-learning world, the employee\u2019s first duty is to develop and maintain their own skills, the company\u2019s goal is to provide a framework where it can happen.<\/p>\n

Younger generations\u2014and the new perspectives they bring\u2014are here to remind us: It is here and now that everything is being played out, in an evolving relationship seen as a partnership which is much more than a traditional \u201cemployer-employee\u201d relationship.<\/p>\n

As a result, there is room between \u201cputting up with\u201d and \u201cacting\u201d when it comes to change: we can make a choice.<\/strong><\/p>\n

To keep some control, it means going beyond a \u201creactive\u201d discourse on change which is understood as \u201ceverything changes and I will adapt\u201d. It means being aware that \u201ceverything is changing and I\u2019m part of that change\u201d.<\/p>\n

The recent activities observed among the Swiss population these last few months invite us to investigate what is happening even more intensely. The time is one of mobilization. \u201cEverything changes. I am part of these changes. I want to be able to fully assume my position as an actor of change and, as a result, I expect that all will be mobilized with me to change things.\u201d<\/p>\n

In other words, it\u2019s not just about \u201ctaking change by the hand before it takes me by the throat\u201d (Churchill), but it\u2019s about bringing it along with me and mobilizing my environment. This new momentum is an energy we can plug into to.<\/p>\n

We believe that companies that have understood they are the creators of the change that they announce will be perfectly positioned to negotiate the next steps. They will have prepared\u2014while creating\u2014the soil necessary for a favorable reception of future transformations.<\/p>\n
