| Summary: | With almost no natural resources, Singapore’s knowledge-based economy is dependent on its talent. The government has been advocating the critical importance of on-going upskilling of its citizens to become a smart nation in an increasingly Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous (VUCA) world. Its recent SkillsFuture agenda was launched in 2016 to provide Singaporeans with the opportunities to develop their fullest potential throughout life. Universities are expected to support this initiative and provide industry specific education to build a competitive workforce that is based on a tripartite collaboration between government, industry and universities. Singapore Management University (SMU) too, has responded and developed Vision 2025, a roadmap for a transformative education. Within this changing learning ecosystem, how has SMU Libraries been responding? SMU Libraries has been exploring a variety of strategies and creating opportunities to realign its strategic direction and contribute to the overall success of the university. How has SMU Libraries’ Talent Management Strategy become a catalyst to add and demonstrate value to all its stakeholders, including its staff whilst supporting Singapore’s SkillsFuture initiative? |
