Financial Skills Partnership: Leadership 21C

Financial Skills Partnership will develop standards and guidance for the industry including: competence standards; best practice; culture and behaviours; a toolkit for best practice application; women onto boards, and; benefiting from age diversity.
Through this investment, employers will embrace continual learning from the top which will focus on skills and behaviours. Top down awareness will cascade through the organisation providing renewed focus on the business imperatives of skills investments and peer pressure will influence the wider industry to raise ambitions in skills.
