On Skill – gaps in an Organisation and how fill those?
Skill is an evolving concept. The Skill appropriate today will not be appropriate after some time. So you have to actually measure and create a skill matrix and on that basis you can develop skill inventory and actually it has to be continuously an evolving process. Whereas, skilling is dynamic process. Responding to the emerging skills will not create a skill gap. If you are active in terms of managing the organization there will never be a skill – gap. Skill gap is having a strategic planning and effective goal setting which will result in mapping of skills that are required and dropping of existing skills in the system. Soft skills is more or less permanent phenomenon and technical skills are like very evolving concept. By the time you complete your programming of technical skills these skill sets has said to be again realigned with the development of technology and if you are obsolete you become redundant in the organizational context.
