Summary

The article looks at employee upskilling efforts in response to AI, which often leave employees overwhelmed and organisations disappointed. Rather than drawing up an endless list of skills, Gartner research identifies two priority areas for organisations: work orchestration skills, meaning how employees collaborate with AI to achieve results, and oversight and governance skills, meaning how to ensure that the results produced by AI are accurate, safe and reliable. Focusing on these two areas would allow employees to keep pace with the technology.
