Reskilling & Succession
Skills shortages mean re-skilling and succession planning. See where you stand against emerging skills, make readiness changes visible, and engage people with development that actually prepares them for new roles.
The Problem
New technology and operating models are changing required skill sets, but what they should be is not clear. Succession plans feel theoretical; internal candidates aren’t ready in time.
What changes with Centranum
- A view of emerging skills and your current position
- A clear picture of staff readiness for target roles.
- Development programmes – (using the 70-2-0-10 principle) experiential training, stretch work, collaborations, mentoring, projects, training courses that build capability.
- A healthier internal fill rate.
How it works
- Identify emerging skills/competencies
- Identify and link relevant learning resources
- Create competency criteria that fit your environment
- Map to profiles for use in assessments and link to staff needing to reskill
- Create and track development objectives with matched learning resources to close the gaps
- For position based succession use role matching to identify gaps and work to close them
- For job family or leadership succession pipeline – assess talent potential
- Create talent pools with relevant learning programmes and experiences and track progress

FAQ
Where do “future skills” come from?
From your strategy and operating model. Start with one critical role and use our AI assistant to identify evolving responsibilities and matching future skills. World Economic Forum 2025 report has useful information on future core skills
Can we reuse our existing skills framework?
Yes —import as‑is; and extend with future skills where relevant. See our article on Skills Shortages for currently projected future skills and also sample competency definition with criteria for Critical Thinking Skills
