Agenda Day 1

9:00 AM Building a Successful Upskilling Program: Onboarding, Continuous Learning & Skills Matrix

In SSON Research & Analytics’ 2025 State of the Industry Survey, 49% of respondents listed upskilling employees as their number one objective in 2025, far above business partnering (35%) and leveraging automation solutions (35%). This is particularly important in finance as digitalization and organizational transformation mean that far from just dealing in numbers, finance leaders are expected to be strategic, analytical, and client-facing. In this session, we invited NIQ Capabilities Leader Ranjit Peter to share their fantastic upskilling program.

• Aligning skills development with organizational goals
• Onboarding: How the right start equals the right skills
• To mandate or not? How do we ensure employees are utilizing training resources?
• Ongoing assessment, feedback, and leadership support
• Measuring the effectiveness of your upskilling initiatives in finance
