Reskilling is the retraining of a team member for a different role by building new skills, not by strengthening existing ones. It requires a larger training investment than upskilling, because it means building new skills from scratch or nearly so, combining structured formal training, intensive side-by-side coaching in the first months of the new role and protected time for learning. In the cases documented in Italian companies, the most successful reskilling experiences combine clear communication of the path to the team member with ongoing support during the transition phase.
