Addressing the Skills Gap: future of education and work
Technological developments we have witnessed in recent times have rapidly changed the way we learn and work – and consequently contributed to accelerating the skills gap. An estimated total talent deficit of 85 million workers can be expected in 2030, which results in approx. USD 8.5 trillion in unrealized revenue globally, as noted by Korn Ferry’s “Future of Work” findings. If we put this into perspective, that is more than the yearly GDP of the UK and Germany combined.
