The talent quandary is a tough one to crack. Ask the jobseekers, and they rue the unavailability of good jobs. Go over to talent managers, though, and they say the right talent is just not available. So, what really is this talent shortage organizations are faced with?
Consider these:
Soft skills have surpassed digital skills in importance; the latter are still needed, though
Skills have a shorter shelf life, with the double whammy coming from a much longer time needed to close a skill gap
Intelligent automation could catch many organizations or even countries unawares, given how much of the workforce will need reskilling
Flexible work cultures are what will foster critical new skill development
