The Research

We asked:

■ What’s causing skills shortages globally? ■ Is addressing skill shortages rising in priority? ■ Is the war for talent different than in the past? ■ What’s more important – focusing on high potential/high performers or focusing on

all employees? ■ How can companies address talent shortages:

– Strategically? – Operationally?
