According to PwC’s 2013 Global CEO Survey, the shortage of key skills ranks second (behind only higher taxes) as a threat to growth in 2013.
In the Conference Board’s CEO Challenge 2013, how best to develop, engage, manage, and retain talent—leads the list of the top ten global challenges in the coming year. Moreover, CEOs’ top strategy for addressing human capital is growing talent internally.
Execs also report that only 5 percent of their employees have the mix of skills and capabilities required to deliver on the results their organizations expect in 2013, (recent study by global corporate research firm CEB.)
