Talent Development

In today’s rapidly evolving business climate, HR leaders face intense pressure to continuously upskill their workforce amidst tight budgets and shifting priorities. Research shows that barely 47% of employees feel their companies invest in the skills they need to advance. Traditional, one-size-fits-all training isn’t cutting it anymore – employees now expect learning opportunities tailored to their goals and schedules. This challenge is especially pronounced in dynamic markets like India and the Gulf, where diverse teams and fast-paced growth demand agile development solutions.

“Lack of training is as fatal as bad hiring, leading to increase in conflicts, decrease in productivity, unhappy customers and ultimately impacting the business”

While our flagship programsHappiness at Work and Leadership Journeys—offer deep, transformative experiences, we recognize the need for quick, high-impact learning interventions that address immediate priorities.

Ad Hoc Programs from the Institute of Skills address this need by offering flexible, targeted training modules that tackle specific competencies. These short, high-impact programs can be delivered as standalone workshops or bundled into a customized learning journey, ensuring organizations get exactly what they need when they need it.

According to Research by Harvard University, Carnegie Foundation and Stanford Research Center.

“Soft skills have a hard business impact”
