"squiggly" career model: our future

And the World Economic Forum estimates that 50 percent of the skills that we have right now, in 2021, won't be relevant by 2025, 4 years from now… Is it frightening or exciting? Certainly both I think. Whatever it means that we must change our vision of what is a career path and reshape our thinking about what is a promotion. Sarah Ellis and Helen Tupper promote what they call the "squiggly" careers model: dynamic, open-ended growth paths tailor-made for your individual needs, talents, and ambitions. They don’t use the word career path but career possibilities. It means that they challenge the career ladders we know in our organization and propose organizations unleashing unconditional learning. Not only learning for our current or our next position but global learning to enhance our capabilities and to watch the opportunities. Learning is no more a privilege given according to a position but a new continent to explore to maximize our possibilities. As a constant promoter of continuous learning, I find this proposition quite interesting; for me, it also means that we have to reconsider our perception of successes and failures; there is no one summit to climb but a journey with a lot of different paths to explore. Agile learning will make agile organizations ready to succeed in this very uncertain and volatile world. Enjoy your video.
