  ABSTRACT: This exploratory study investigates skill obsolescence in the digital age, emphasizing the roles of grit and Strength-Based Leadership (SBL) in enhancing career adaptability within Multinational Corporations. Utilizing a cross-sectional design, data were collected from 113 employees across Australia, New Zealand, and Malaysia. Hypotheses were tested using regression analyses with bootstrapping techniques. The findings reveal significant relationships between grit, SBL, and career adaptability in the context of skill obsolescence. Grit, characterized by perseverance, is strongly associated with career adaptability, underscoring its role in helping employees navigate evolving skill requirements. SBL effectively bridges consistency of interest with career adaptability, even in the absence of a direct correlation. This study evaluates how combining grit and SBL enhances career adaptability, offering new insights into skill development strategies for transnational settings and practical recommendations for leaders to manage digital age complexities effectively.
