SW-2025 February Shaping Future-Ready Leaders: Bridging the Durable Skill Gap in Business Education

As the workforce evolves at an unprecedented pace, business education faces mounting pressure to adapt. The traditional focus on technical skills is no longer enough—today’s graduates need durable skills, such as communication, collaboration, and critical thinking, to navigate a rapidly changing professional landscape. In this insightful webinar, we’ll explore findings from a recent survey of deans and associate deans from 35 business schools across North America, revealing critical gaps in durable skills among students and graduates. Learn how generative AI, post-pandemic educational disruptions, and shifting employer expectations are reshaping the skills landscape, creating both challenges and opportunities for academic institutions.
