Employers in Germany face a sharp decline in staff numbers due to retirements, a trend highlighting the urgent need for better education and training within the country. Improved training and education is crucial in preparing a new generation of skilled workers capable of filling the growing gaps across various industries. By investing in comprehensive vocational training programs and enhancing higher education curricula, Germany can ensure its workforce remains competitive on a global scale. This approach not only addresses the immediate issue of workforce depletion due to aging but also positions Germany as a leader in innovation and skilled labor, ready to tackle the challenges of the 21st century.

I'm thrilled to share what I've been working on with my co-founder, Volker Hollmichel, over the last few months: As an immigrant who moved to the US and later relocated to Germany, I embrace the opportunities inherent in international transitions and deeply respect the value of a global workforce. The shortage of skilled workers, with its crucial impact on the success of companies, further underscores the necessity for a global approach, as it extends beyond solutions that can be solely addressed domestically. Already today, the demand for skilled workers, including technicians, plumbers, construction workers, handymen, and other specialists – far exceeds the available talent pool. This labor gap isn't just a minor inconvenience; it's a glaring economic red flag. 🟥 One key solution: We must mobilize talent – and we need to do this fast! This is where our strategic #TalentMobilization emergency plan comes into play. At Wandel, we are at the forefront of this change. 🌍 Our platform bridges the gap between forward-thinking employers and pre-vetted international skilled workers. ✨ Our mission is clear: to tackle the talent shortage head-on by making global talent mobility seamless and efficient.

Joined my wonderful colleague, Marina Torres-Martins, at the Greater Vancouver Board of Trade's event – Work Disrupted: Building a Reinvention-Ready Workforce. The presentation and panel discussion explored what employers and organizations need to do to ensure their workforce is ready for the future. Key takeaways included: – Globally, Canada is behind in AI adoption and education and we are going to lose people if we don't catch up. – Employees are looking for work-life integration (versus balance) and flexible work hours, along with real connections. – We need to be curious rather than resistant to AI. – When it comes to employees' trust in employers, it's important to remember that behind trust is the very human emotion of fear. We must connect with employees from a human point of view. Great insights were also shared from PwC's Global Workforce Hopes & Fears Survey.
