Advisors can significantly influence business growth by providing expertise in strategic planning, operational efficiency, and market expansion. Their insights and guidance can help businesses navigate challenges, leverage opportunities, and achieve sustainable growth. Choosing the right advisor involves aligning their expertise with your business goals and needs. Look for advisors whose skills and experience complement your strategic objectives. For example, if your focus is on expanding into new markets, an advisor with a strong background in market analysis and strategic partnerships, similar to your experience, would be invaluable. To evaluate an advisor's effectiveness, consider assessing their impact on your business outcomes. This involves analyzing the advisor's contributions to achieving strategic goals, such as enhancing customer experience or driving business growth. For example, since you're focused on strategic partnerships and transformation programs, measure the advisor's success in fostering meaningful partnerships and their role in successful transformation initiatives. To measure an advisor's impact on growth, consider implementing their suggestions and monitoring the impact on your key performance indicators (KPIs) such as revenue, growth, and customer satisfaction. For example, if an advisor recommends a new strategic partnership, you can track any changes in revenue or customer base growth resulting from this partnership.

Around 155,000 freshers in the IT and tech sector are likely to get hired in FY24 compared to 230,000 graduates last fiscal, reports businessline, citing TeamLease Digital. A hiring slowdown and “intensified skills evaluation mechanisms” have become a cause for concern for the 1.5 million engineering graduates currently seeking employment, the report says. With companies looking for a combination of soft and hard skills, the report highlights a skills gap suggesting that only 45% of the applicants meet the required proficiency expectations. To bridge this gap, TeamLease Digital’s Business Head Krishna Vij says that collaborative efforts of the industry, academia, and government can help with building relevant programmes and curricula. Another report by The Economic Times suggests a decline in the number of students enrolling for courses in engineering and technology. TeamLease Edtech’s President Neeti Sharma says that the enrolment for B. Tech courses dropped to 3.6 million in 2020-21 compared to four million in 2016-17. Freshers hiring by IT companies also declined to 15% and 10% in FY23 and FY24, respectively, compared to 26% in FY22, she adds. The demand for courses like cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and cyber security, on the other hand, is still intact, Sharma says.
