Closing the Skills Gap: Start with Awareness

In Episode 3 of Closing the Skills Gap, Harry focuses on the first, and most overlooked, step in the Skills Readiness Framework: Awareness.

Start with Awareness

Are you as skills ready as you think you are?

Everyone’s talking about skills strategies. But when it comes to real-world readiness, there’s often a serious disconnect between ambition and reality.

We’ve seen it time and time again: Leaders believe they’re prepared, but employees on the ground feel unsupported. The result? Skills gaps persist, and performance suffers.

If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone.

In this episode, Harry takes a sharp look at the Awareness phase, where every effective skills strategy must begin. He unpacks why many organizations stall at this stage, and what it takes to move forward with clarity and confidence.

You’ll learn:

  • Why awareness is more than just recognising a skills gap
  • How to uncover blind spots in your current workforce strategy
  • Common mistakes that lead to misalignment, and how to avoid them
  • Steps to build organisation-wide visibility and accountability

Watch Episode 3 now and take the first step toward true skills readiness, because you can’t close the gap until you see it clearly.
