How do you actually become a skills‑led organisation? In Episode 9, Francesca Caroleo – CHRO at Citi Luxembourg, formerly at Allianz and Bank International of Luxembourg – lays out a pragmatic, manager‑friendly path from headcount to skills.
Hosted by Rosaria Bonifacio (VP HR at Nokia), this conversation turns buzzwords into actions: define the job, pick the few core skills, prototype before you scale, and build a growth culture. It also shows where AI strengthens – not replaces – your competency model.
