    Episode 284 – Identifying Skills Gaps and Designing Personalised Learning Plans Using AI – with Robin Adda from SkillsAssess

    Play Episode Listen Later May 26, 2025 19:32


    It's been estimated that up to 30% of the UK workforce currently lacks the skills needed to do their jobs effectively. The founder and CEO of SkillsAssess, Robin Adda, joined me on the podcast to talk about his bold new mission: to fix the broken skills training ecosystem. (NOTE: Register for Robin's upcoming panel discussion on AI for HR & L&D.) A highly successful serial entrepreneur, Robin's latest venture, SkillsAssess, uses AI-powered assessments to help businesses and training providers truly understand what skills people have, and what training they actually need. It's smarter, faster, and more targeted, and could just be the missing link in workforce development. By using AI-powered assessments, SkillsAssess helps identify individual skills gaps and creates personalized learning pathways to close them. Robin is a true veteran in EdTech and IT Training. He's founded and scaled successful companies (including GTS Learning, later acquired by CompTIA), and his entrepreneurial journey includes a legal win against Apple back in the '80s. From running a word processing bureau in the pre-internet days to selling his company to one of the biggest names in tech, Robin's story offers valuable lessons and inspiration for anyone in business, HR, or tech. In a wide-ranging discussion, Robin and I talked about: ✅ Building and sustaining resilience in leadership. ✅ The risks of generic, one-size-fits-all training. ✅ How AI is transforming HR and learning. ✅ What makes SkillsAssess stand out in the skills/L&D space. ✅ The value of a flexible, content-agnostic platform. ✅ Aligning training with organizational goals and values. ✅ The future of effective workforce development. ✅ And much more.

    With the decline of third-party cookies and the rise of privacy regulations like GDPR and iOS updates, understanding what truly drives conversions is more challenging than ever.

    Workplace culture isn't an HR project, it's a leadership priority. One of the biggest challenges companies face is when CEOs don't see culture as their responsibility. But without top-down commitment, even the best HR efforts fall flat. Real change starts at the top. What doesn't work? Band-aid perks like free lunches or ping-pong tables. As Nia Pommerenke, my guest from “ Better HR Business Podcast puts it: “No one will stick around for the coffee if the culture is bad.” What does work? Clarity, consistent action, and embedding culture into every part of the organization, from hiring to performance reviews to how managers lead every day. I recently spoke with Nia Pommerenke, Founder and Culture Transformation Consultant from of SeaBright Culture Solutions, about the real challenges organizations face when trying to build strong, engaging cultures, and why leadership commitment is key to meaningful change. Nia has dedicated over twenty-five years to the human resources field, with a particular passion for shaping how people experience work through culture, engagement, and leadership. In a wide-ranging discussion, Nia and I talked about: ✅ Why CEO leadership is essential for setting culture and leading by example. ✅ How quick fixes often fail to address deeper cultural issues. ✅ What truly drives engagement—purpose, psychological safety, growth, and trust. ✅ Why HR can't do it alone—culture change requires shared ownership. ✅ How adaptability demands investment in upskilling, clarity, and resilience. ✅ Tips for starting smart in HR consulting: focus on visibility, marketing, and clear value ✅ And much more.

Today, I am joined by Tobba Vigfusdottir, CEO and Founder of Kara Connect, a customised mental health and wellbeing platform for employees.  Tobba has an M.Ed. in Educational Psychology from the University of Washington in Seattle and a B.Ed. from the University of Iceland; both focused on cognitive psychology.

She sits on the National Theatre board and the Science and Technology board appointed by the Minister of Innovation. Before entrepreneurship, Tobba was an elected city councillor in Reykjavík for 12 years, a political Advisor to the Minister of Education and a project manager for a women's entrepreneurial program. In a wide-ranging interview, Tobba and I discussed these topics: ✅ The role leadership plays in creating a mentally healthy workplace culture. ✅ What Kara Connect does and how it helps organisations improve workplace wellbeing. ✅ The main or most common mental health and wellbeing challenges in workplaces today. ✅ Ineffective ways companies try to address these challenges. ✅ Approaches that actually work when it comes to supporting mental health and creating healthier workplaces. ✅ What has worked well in terms of business growth and getting the word out about Kara Connect. ✅ And much more.

    Employment lawsuits in the U.S. remain a problem. A recent survey found that 37% of small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) had faced an employee lawsuit in the past year. While large corporations have legal teams at the ready, small businesses often depend on a single, dedicated HR professional juggling everything. That's why Adam Daines, Founder and CEO of ADDA, didn't just observe the AI revolution in HR - he and his team created MyHRAlly: a secure, closed AI platform built specifically to empower HR teams in small and mid-sized businesses. AI isn't here to replace people. It's here to relieve HR teams from the flood of administrative tasks, so they can focus on what truly matters: fostering trust, driving innovation, and enabling growth within their organizations. In a wide-ranging discussion, Adam and I talked about: ✅ The challenge of pricing HR consulting, especially with unpredictable employee relations. ✅ How employees today are more aware of their rights, thanks to online resources and legal advertising. ✅ The complexity of delivering HR services across multiple states with different employment laws. ✅ MyHRAlly, the AI-driven HR platform Adam and his team developed. ✅ Why AI in HR should support - not replace - the human element. ✅The role of strategic partnerships in scaling MyHRAlly. ✅ And much more.

    Why do soft skills matter more than ever? As AI automates more tasks, human skills - like communication, creativity, and teamwork - are becoming the new gold standard, at work and beyond.

    Today's workforce has grown up with digital education - they expect modern, relevant training to help them succeed, not as a perk, but as a given. Data shows that companies with strong learning programs see higher employee satisfaction, better retention, and improved customer outcomes. However, for companies with 50 to 500 employees, especially those growing fast or expanding product lines, building a full-scale L&D department isn't always feasible. The challenge of providing effective training is real - and ignoring it is no longer an option. I talked with Luis Garcia, President and Co-Founder of PETE, about how personalized, scalable training solutions - covering everything from onboarding to compliance and technical upskilling - are not just helpful, but essential for long-term success. PETE Learning is an Orlando-based HR tech startup helping businesses streamline and optimize their learning initiatives, through its AI-led training platform. In a wide-ranging discussion, Luis and I talked about: ✅ The limitations of traditional training methods — and how AI is changing the game. ✅ How PETE's AI algorithms deliver dynamic, scalable learning experiences. ✅ Why effective onboarding and continuous development are key to employee retention. ✅ Growth strategies through digital marketing and sales. ✅ The role of strategic acquisitions in expanding PETE's offerings and strengthening its platform. ✅ How PETE leverages local networks and digital channels to scale its reach. ✅ And much more!

    Finding your niche can be the key to unlocking new opportunities - whether it's launching a side hustle, growing a business, or balancing passion with a full-time career. I had an inspiring conversation with Cecilia Clark, founder of Aphrodite HR, about how she carved out a unique space in HR while maintaining work-life balance. Her company specializes in supporting independent fertility practices, helping them navigate industry challenges and build sustainable teams. One of the standout aspects of Aphrodite HR is its specialized approach to the unique demands of fertility practices. Unlike other medical fields, fertility services operate on irregular schedules, dictated by the unpredictable nature of patient cycles. This creates distinct challenges in ensuring work-life balance for staff - something Cecilia and her team are dedicated to solving.

    In today's episode (see the video version on the Get More HR Clients website), Ben shares a quick tip to make it a little easier to market your HR business: segment your target audience. (By ‘HR' we mean Generalist HR, Recruitment, Learning & Development, Employment Law, Compensation & Benefits, Diversity & Inclusion, Employee Engagement, etc). This is really good for generalist firms and consultants who don't want to 'niche down' or specialize in a particular industry or sector. One easy way is to come up with a few ‘buyer categories'. This is just a list of your main customer categories with some background information to guide you. All categories are different as they all have different needs, pressures, and frustrations. For example, for Ben's HR consulting business, he divided his website into the following categories: HR Professionals in Mid-Large Companies Business Owner Office Manager/Administration External Consultant To Companies Student Other Listen in to find out why. How would you divide up your customer/client categories? This episode will help you to target the right types of businesses and people within those companies. It will help you understand their needs, wants, questions, and concerns (and what they don't want). While you're here, check out the HR Business Accelerator . . .
