Closing the Skills Intelligence Gap in the AI Era - with Cory Hymel of Andela

Aug 27, 2026

Job titles routinely undercount what employees can actually do, especially in fast-moving technical roles.
 
In this episode, Cory Hymel, Head of Research at Andela, explores why mapping skills instead of roles gives leaders a far more accurate picture of workforce capability and AI readiness.
 
The conversation covers how continuous skills assessment, rather than one-time training, keeps pace with a technical skill half-life that's now down to two or three years.
 
This episode is sponsored by Andela.
