The trends we have been predicting before the crisis are accelerating at speed and new trends have been emerging, too.
We are experiencing the biggest workforce shift and reallocation of skills since World War II began in 2020 – even those skills most in demand in the early phase of the crisis are different to demand emerging now and expected in future, especially as they relate to automation and digital transformation.
Organizations need a talent strategy that is aligned with their business strategy to help them accelerate performance and meet their business objectives. Increasingly, organizations are challenged to:

Transform their workforce at scale.
Redesign value propositions and experiences for the new business reality to attract and retain the talent they need.
Requirement to reduce headcount but increase skills.
