IAMCP UK&I Webinar – ‘From Strategy to Skills: Building Future-Ready Capability for the Agentic World’

This IAMCP UK&I webinar explores how Microsoft partners can build effective skilling and development plans in an agentic, AI driven world. It starts by reframing skilling – from static, role based training to continuous, capability led development – reflecting the pace and complexity partners face today.

The session then focuses on how to stay aligned with Microsoft priorities without losing sight of your own business objectives, including practical ways to keep up with product releases and decide where to go deep versus stay informed. It connects skilling directly to GTM strategy, showing how partners can translate solution plays, growth areas, and market focus into commercially relevant learning pathways.

The agenda also addresses how to turn training into a people strategy by bridging HR, L&D, and technical teams – linking development plans to career pathways, retention, and workforce planning. Finally, it looks at how to involve People teams in the agentic journey, creating shared ownership of skills, culture, and adoption. The webinar closes with clear takeaways, outlining what “good” looks like for an agentic ready skilling plan and the practical steps partners can take over the next 90 days.
