Figure 11: Talent constraints have impacted costs – but also factor in lost opportunities

Q: Have talent constraints impacted your company’s growth and profitability over the past 12 months in the following ways?

Our talent-related expenses rose more than expected

We weren’t able to innovate effectively

We were unable to pursue a market opportunity

We cancelled or delayed a key strategic initiative

We couldn’t achieve growth forecasts in overseas markets

We couldn’t achieve growth forecasts in the country where we are based

Our production and/or service delivery quality standards fell

Companies are getting more local about their global growth strategies.

Many are expanding capabilities in their priority markets and innovating locally to better serve new customers in new segments.

CEOs are also challenged to address talent issues more systematically and strategically in all their markets.
