Agile recruiting: How companies can adapt their strategy to the changing labour market and be successful

14/04/2023

Future-orientated recruiting

The labour market is subject to constant change and will change even more drastically in the coming years, according to the forecast of the World Economic Forum. While many companies are already developing strategies to respond to these changes, the question arises as to what a successful recruiting strategy can look like in this rapidly changing world of work.

The challenges are diverse and complex. Technological developments, automation and the use of artificial intelligence will make many jobs redundant and change the demands placed on employees. At the same time, there are new occupational fields that will be in high demand in the future, such as renewable energies, big data and cybersecurity.

To be successful in this rapidly changing world of work, companies need to adapt their recruitment strategy and focus on the needs of tomorrow’s employees. This includes focussing on teaching skills that will continue to be relevant in the future, such as flexibility, creativity and a willingness to learn.

Another challenge is to see the changing world of work as an opportunity and to be open to new technologies and ways of working. Companies should regularly scrutinise their work processes and be prepared to adapt them in order to meet the requirements of the changing world of work.

Conclusion

In summary, it can be said that companies must prepare themselves for the changing demands of the labour market in order to remain competitive in the future. This includes not only adapting their recruiting strategy, but also being open to new technologies and ways of working. Companies that successfully master these challenges will be successful in the future and will be able to attract the employees of tomorrow.

Here’s the quiet contradiction in private equity: Financial DD predicts potential. Human Capital DD predicts reality. And the gap between the two is where value is most often lost.

Die Due Diligence, die Private Equity noch immer unterschätzt: Human Capital

In Private Equity analysieren Financial und Commercial Due Diligence vor allem Potenzial. Doch ob dieses Potenzial realisiert wird, entscheidet allein die Organisation, die es umsetzen soll. Human Capital Due Diligence macht sichtbar, ob Führung, Rollen und Kultur tatsächlich in der Lage sind, die Wertsteigerungspläne zu liefern – oder ob genau dort der späteste und teuerste Wertverlust entsteht.
