Recorded live at the 2025 ASU+GSV Summit in San Diego, this session featured Vishaal Gupta, President of Workforce Skills at Pearson; Joe Farrell, Managing Director of KPMG Learning Services at KPMG; Tim O’Reilly, Founder & CEO at O'Reilly Media, Inc.; and Todd Minor, General Manager and Global Learning Leader at Microsoft.
The session explored how demographic shifts and rapid technological advancements are reshaping the world of work, bringing both significant opportunities and critical challenges. The speakers discussed the growing mismatch between roles needed and available talent, and the urgent need for widespread reskilling—highlighting the World Economic Forum’s estimate that a billion people will require reskilling by 2030. They emphasized the importance of transforming skills development and talent planning to prevent the skills gap from becoming a skills chasm in an AI-driven future.
