Here’s what THE FORECASTER has in store for you this week…

Work Culture

Work to live or live to work?

When employee satisfaction starts to dip, workers increasingly have the option to “find something better”—or at least feel empowered to fight for what they want… especially when the cost of living continues to rise, wages stay the same, and companies bring in record profits. (Vox)

Let’s get digital

With an increasing proportion of the global workforce working in hybrid or fully remote teams, digital skills are a must. However, a majority of employees feel that their digital skills are lacking, to the extent that it negatively affects collaboration with their teams. (Employernews)

The Great Reshuffle

Remember the Great Resignation? And how it sort of turned into the Great Can I Have My Job Back? Now we’re facing the Great Reshuffle, keeping employees happy is of the utmost importance. Here’s what you need to know about employee recognition. (Inc.)

Hybrid Working

RTO KO

“The biggest clue that the return-to-office push won’t work, though, is the fact that executives themselves privately predict that remote work will keep increasing” (HBR)

The WFH Revolution

The pandemic changed the working landscape forever, but the ways we work continue to evolve. Do people prefer in-office experiences over at-home/hybrid models? Unsurprisingly, it’s not at all that linear. We’re in the age of the WORK FROM HOME REVOLUTION. (The Guardian)

Talent Crunch

¡AI caramba!

Just when you thought the talent crunch couldn’t get any more threatening, the recent leap forwards of generative AI is promising to further widen the global skills gap. To succeed in this new era, businesses must shift their perspectives, embrace new ways of working, and look to new sources of talent. (IBM)

Mind the Skills Gap

“98% of HR leaders report that their organization faces significant skills shortages, with the potential to derail plans for business transformation.” (Mercer)

Global Employment

Talent Relocation

We’re in the midst of a talent crunch, yet there are thousands of tech experts who can’t find work. Global talent relocation offers a lifeline to businesses and employees — encouraging growth, diversity, versatility, and a solution for skill gaps. (Forbes)
