It is the top driver in healthcare and life sciences, and professional services. Looking ahead to 2023, 58% to 67% anticipate hiring challenges in 2021. 48% to 67% anticipate retention challenges in 2021.
Alun Parry, partner at Boyden Australia, commented on the realities of the market. As the war for talent continues after the COVID-19 pandemic, the tenure of management is getting shorter. Opportunities are multiplying as organizations race for leaders who can lead already fragile organizations through the global economic upheaval. “
Nonetheless, respondents say they will invest more in leadership development and recruiting more diverse executives, driven by the need for different executive skill sets, especially in the healthcare and life sciences and professional services sectors. I expect.
