Multiple skill ontologies across systems prevent consistent workforce analytics.

The opportunity

Limitations and risks

Stale data, inherited bias, and privacy rules. Name a human who is accountable for career-affecting answers.

What implementation requires

Start with one process. Agree how you will score it. Involve legal and HR before you scale. Track whether people use it, not only whether the model is accurate.
