As it recovers from the pandemic, London must both invest in creating the workforce of the future, driving a reskilling and upskilling revolution, and continue to attract the talent it needs from overseas. Celebrating diversity and supporting the next generation of leaders are critical to success.
Our work will focus on:
- Skilling London, a package of activities that supports the future shape of skills provision in the capital and beyond, including via virtual Skills London, a new skills platform, and ongoing reform of the apprenticeship levy;
- Diversity and inclusion, we will embed a next generation business leadership programme for mid-career rising stars, as well as championing the Charter for Black Talent;
- A global workforce for Britain, building on our successful #fullstrength campaign and scrutinising the future immigration regime as it moves into implementation;
- Expanding the leadership exchange programme and continuing to respond to Brexit as it moves into implementation.
