The third thing that CEOs would most like to change is access to and the development of talent. People issues remain a critical challenge for the CEO. A staggering 89% agree or strongly agree that the people agenda is one of their main personal objectives and where they are spending most of their personal time and effort.
Organisations operating in today’s world are facing some of the greatest people management challenges in the history of business: the talent crisis, an ageing workforce in the Western world, the rising demands for global worker mobility as well as the organisational and cultural issues emerging from the dramatic pace of change in the past ten years. But how will these changes impact businesses over the next decade, and what other social, economic, environmental and demographic factors will have an impact on the world of work?
CEOs need to ensure they have the right incentives model to attract and retain the high quality staff they desire. Equally important is strong employee engagement and staff loyalty through regular and open communication.
