From heavy industry to professional services, employers around the world are in a mad scramble for talent. As the first signs of a post-COVID future emerge, businesses are already working to identify new challenges and opportunities, and many have found that talent and workforce strategy are top of the agenda. This should come as no surprise – talent was already a leading business priority before pandemic struck – but many employers are no more prepared to bridge the talent gap than they were a year ago.
But rather than joining in the all-out race for talent, some HR professionals are looking to work smarter, not harder. In this case, that means embracing a new talent strategy model based entirely around skills and rethinking how organizations can acquire and retain them. By taking a strategic view of future skills needs and market supply/demand, top employers are moving toward a more practical approach to talent and reward practices that will enable increased flexibility and resiliency, all in the service of future-proofing their business.
