Trends Driving the New Human Age
Shifting Demographics
Birth rates decline while populations age, creating acute talent shortages and reduced labor force participation in many countries. Gen Z workers are raising the bar for issues that matter to them.
Tech Adoption
As organizations continue to invest in technology, they’ll need to foster digital skills from within while seeking external talent to maximize return on investment.
Individual Choice
The pandemic made flexible work a reality causing a paradigm shift in how people balance their work and personal lives. People want more choices about when, where and how they do their jobs.
Competitive Drivers
Access to highly skilled talent is a distinct competitive advantage. Winning is about managing risk and building resiliency in the face of ongoing economic and geopolitical uncertainty.
