Workforce Trends.
The pandemic has created lasting structural changes in the workforce and accelerated the formation of a talent pool with markedly different expectations and behaviors.
-
Workers are demanding more flexibility, agency and ownership over their work, caring deeply about mission and value alignment.
-
The ability to work from anywhere has led talent to be more distributed than ever and yet a persistent unequal distribution of opportunity.
-
A growing proportion of workers with non-linear career paths are building skills and a portfolio of jobs over time.
-
A lasting evolution in employee/employer relationships due to work becoming more skills-based and project-oriented.
-
The rise of the firmless professional with independents increasingly monetizing on their talents (not time) through task-based and competency-led work.
-
Technology driving a fundamental shift in the use of human capital (with automation making jobs safer and enabling workers to be used where human skills are required).
