IBM’s Ginni Rometty on Skill-Building and Success

HBR IdeaCast
What I would come to learn is that how we did our work and the skills we had would actually be equal, if not more important, and would probably be the tougher of all those things to do; change how work was done, and then change the skills. And then, at the end of the day, you have to reward and pay people that way and promote them, the accountability systems would change the skills and putting the data in people’s hands so they could manage it themselves, and then a Netflix-type learning system that’s out there, and then an awful lot of experiential. If you only hire people that are skills first in tiny, little two, three people, your company will never change.
