Competencies’ expiration date

Before the pandemic, approximately two-thirds of leaders expected employees to improve their skills. Now 9 out of 10 leaders expect this from employees. This change is very important and must be carried out on many levels. Certainly one of them is the strategic dimension of the company. In the case of Orange, we adopted a growth strategy two years ago, which of course assumes the company's growth in certain segments, but a very important one, one of the four key pillars, is investment in people, in human capital, in improving qualifications. All this with a very clear ambition set by the management that at least half of our employees, i.e. a population of 9,000 people, will be trained on the job, and some will be retrained for new roles. We have also clearly defined the directions. In our case, this means working with data, cybersecurity, working in the cloud, and using the potential of the 5G network.
