LEADERSHIP AND DEVELOPMENT Offering robust and varied experiences for continuous learning and development provides a competitive advantage for organizations seeking to attract and retain the best talent. With the talent shortage and focus on the candidate-centric market, organizations will be required to devote more attention to internal mobility, reskilling and upskilling existing employees. They will need to keep sustainability at their core to attract, develop and retain the right talent to help drive ESG strategy and outcomes. Dynamic learning journeys give existing employees avenues for building skills and capabilities, preparing them to meet the changing needs of our organization and preparing them for the future of work. Our Opportunity and Approach BNY Mellon continuously reviews learning and development trends and collaborates with industry- leading vendors to ensure that our offerings are highly competitive and aligned to employee interests and expectations for professional growth. In particular, the concepts of employee scarcity and sustainability 12 have shaped our 2021 workforce strategy and continue to inform our learning and development strategy. Our organization supports employees’ development as individual contributors and leaders. We strive to create a lifelong learning culture that provides opportunities for them to acquire new skills and competencies at every stage of their BNY Mellon journey. 12 Future of Work Trends in 2022: The new era of humanity , Korn/Ferry
