The Tactical Skills All Employees Need in 2025
The Great Resignation of the workforce is not merely clickbait. Nearly nine in 10 (88%) executives say their company is experiencing higher turnover than usual. Buoyed by the growing acceptance of distributed workforces and a paradigm shift on work/life happiness, employees are making career changes they might not have imagined before the pandemic.
As job vacancies rise, leaders can’t afford to lose the team members powering their companies’ financial decisions, marketing strategy, product design, and customer experience. Offering always-on learning channels is a win-win. Your company keeps the needle steady on talent retention, and employees develop a career path within your organization.
Just as all employees need power skills development, every employee should be encouraged to develop the tactical skills that will help them excel in the day-to-day functions of their role. The following topic categories aren’t specific to employees with these terms in their job titles. Business intelligence skills are essential for HR teams, just as design and finance best practices may be crucial for marketing teams. Explore these trending tactical business topics and take time to analyze which ones make sense for your employees to add to their personal learning plans.

Just as basic computer skills went from being highly specialized to universally required, data literacy has become the current language of business. But understanding data and its applications is an area where many companies are currently falling short. Only 21% of employees are confident in their data skills. Investing in business intelligence (BI) software for employees is worthless if not accompanied by training on the best ways to leverage these tools.
