Recommendation

New digital technologies will continue to transform the business landscape, but the talent market isn’t keeping up. Skilled digital workers are scarce, such that a third of tech positions will be vacant in 2020 because there aren’t enough qualified people to fill them. Larger companies are scrambling to attract tech-savvy talent, but digitally skilled people appear to be gravitating toward smaller companies with fewer than 10,000 employees. In this report, the Boston Consulting Group offers a guide for assessing a company’s digital needs and then hiring and retaining digital talent.

Take-Aways

  • Digital transformation requires skill in six areas.   
  • Attract the right digital talent by recognizing how digital employees differ from traditional employees. Allow recruiters to cater to those differences.
  • It’s vital to nurture current employees to both have and appreciate a range of digital skills.
