Addressing the skills shortage

In discussion with Rick Duckworth, Senior Manager at Accenture

Growth and innovation don’t have to be stifled because there is a shortage of suitable skills available on the recruitment market.

One benefit of a market facing the challenges of a skills shortage, is that it forces organisations to think outside traditional measures. That means taking a new lens to the skills needed and mixing up the talent strategy. What’s the best way to do it? By leaning into partnerships and leaning on the ecosystem to keep the talent pool buoyant.

This is an exciting time for channel partners to step in and steer the conversation and play an integral role in solving these challenges for their customers. In doing so, it creates new, innovative ways for customers to address the skills shortages in their own businesses whilst extending the solutions capability for channel partners
