The World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs Report reveals the top workforce strategies for 2025-2030. Here are the key findings that caught my attention:
Key Statistics:
85% of employers plan to upskill their workforce
73% are accelerating task automation
70% are integrating new technologies
70% plan to hire staff with emerging in-demand skills
41% will reduce roles that are becoming less relevant
Only 10% are focused on re-shoring operations
What's fascinating is that upskilling emerges as the clear leader across all geographies and income levels:
High-income economies: 87%
Upper-middle-income: 84%
Lower-middle-income: 82%
The message is clear: upskilling isn't just a trend—it's becoming essential for business survival. It should be important to you too.
Question for my network:
What upskilling strategies are you and your organization implementing to stay ahead of these changes?
