Employee’s skill is more important than career-CEO of Manpower
Budrigannews.com – The CEO of the U.S. staffing company ManpowerGroup (NYSE:) says that as technological change causes a skills shortage in a post-pandemic world, companies are placing an increasing emphasis on skill development rather than offering careers that last a lifetime. said.
Employers “are not promising a career that lasts 15 years.” In spite of this, “they are promising that when you join that organization, you will develop skills that make you more valuable and more marketable about what you want to do next,” Jonas Prising stated in an interview with Reuters that was published on Friday.
The head of recruitment anticipates that employees will regularly engage in skill development as a result of their employment in twenty years. Prising stated, “We will have more flexibility than we ever thought was possible.”
The COVID-19 pandemic has already accelerated skills shortages, but technology is changing what skills are needed.
He said, “That is something that organizations, economies, and labor markets will have to contend with in the long term.” He also said that the skills gap could get even bigger in the future if the workplace doesn’t change.
ManpowerGroup, with its headquarters in Milwaukee, employs 600,000 people per day and operates in more than 75 nations.
