With the looming labor shortage, companies may need to start looking at hiring someone who fits 80% of a role. That's where skills-based hiring, and upskilling, come into play. Our Senior Economist Elizabeth Crofoot shares more in AIM Group (Marketplaces / Classifieds). https://bit.ly/4hrUUs6

Here's a math problem: There are 370K open positions in construction and the avg. homebuilder is 57 years old. As Boomers continue to exit the labor force, who is going to do the work?

Thank you, Gartner, for hosting an insightful ReimagineHR Conference in Orlando this week. A recurring theme throughout the event was that Skills are essential for the future of work, with organizations worldwide actively working to transform into skill-based models. Skills serve as the connective tissue and foundation for success, enabling organizations to leverage Job Architecture through the lens of skills alongside external Labor Market Intelligence. This skills-based approach drives effectiveness and efficiency across planning, benchmarking, and hiring optimization. By building targeted training and development programs, companies can reduce attrition, enhance career pathways, and streamline upskilling and reskilling for internal mobility—ultimately saving both time and resources. I enjoyed connecting with key partners One Model, Orgvue, Workday, SAP, Oracle, and Coursera. It was also nice to spend quality time in person with my great colleagues Chris Kibarian, Chris Shelley, Mark H. Hanson, Jon Williams, and Jennifer Sonne. We at Lightcast are looking forward to seeing the progress we can make together! #WeAreLightcast #ReimagineHR #FutureOfWork #SkillsBasedHiring #JobArchitecture #LaborMarketIntelligence #HRTech #TalentDevelopment #SkillsTransformation #Upskilling #Reskilling #InternalMobility #TalentManagement #WorkforcePlanning #GartnerHR #HRInnovation #GartnerReImagineHR
