Workforce Transformations

Last week I had the privilege of speaking with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) about my book, Learn Solve Thrive. I left energised and optimistic knowing there are some incredibly competent people applying behavioural insights in their work and that this will have far reaching benefits for so many Australians. The book is available as an eBook or paperback globally. You can grab your copy here: https://shorturl.at/IIUL7 #humancentreddesign #behaviouralinsights #wickedproblems #learning

Thanks to McKinsey for this comprehensive analysis of current tech trends and talent. They analysed 🌟4.3 million job postings 🌟15 tech trends And found 💡year on year decreases in job postings in many trends 💡fewer than half of potential candidates have rheumatoid arthritis high-demand tech skills specified The positive news is that job postings are still up 8% on 2021 figures, so over the longer term, growth continues to be expected. This is an ongoing challenge that strategic workforce planners need to solve collaboratively with stakeholders. The solution needs to extend beyond organisational boundaries to ensure there is a future talent pipeline ready to meet the workforce demand as it emerges. #skillsshortage #workforcetransformation #strategicworkforceplanning

For years, artificial intelligence has been ‘on the radar’ but it is only now that I am seeing a real shift in the workforce planning conversations I am having. Previously, I think people have been aware that they’ll need to address this big unknown…one day. It has been me who has been planting seeds and leading conversations about how organisations and their people might leverage this game changing technology to not only enhance productivity, but to also improve the employee experience and alleviate the many workforce challenges they’re facing, now and into the future. In the last few weeks I have noticed many of my clients are raising a.i. as something they’re ready to tackle head on. The fear factor is abating and being replaced with new excitement and optimism. It is truly invigorating!!! The opportunity before us is complex. This could be one of the most significant changes to the way we all work that we will see in our lifetime. I genuinely worry about those who are not embracing a.i. because the momentum is now moving us pretty fast. This is backed by statistics such as: “By 2030, in a midpoint adoption scenario, up to 30 percent of current hours worked could be automated, accelerated by generative AI (gen AI).” Where are you up to in your a.i. and automation journey? Amd more importantly, where will you be next week, month, year? #ai #automation #workforceplanning #workforcetransformation #productivity #employeeexperience #evp https://lnkd.in/esPVARCz

The workplace we create today will not only impact our current workforce and those we serve. It was also have an impact on the choices our future workforce make. A healthy, happy workforce of people who love what they do is one of the best ways we can inspire the future generation. This is why what we as Strategic Workforce Planners and People and Culture professionals is so important. #strategicworkforceplanning #workplaceculture #peopleandculture #workforce #wellbeing

Heather Pearce of Thrive Medical is a great example of why I started the Reimagined Workforce podcast two years ago. That is, to share stories of people who are finding new and innovative ways to overcome workforce challenges. Heather shares stories of how she is transforming the #rural #healthcare workforce and expanding much needed services to people in far west NSW. She shares some great advice with me, Kath Hume about #collaboration for people who are also wanting to make a difference. She ticks my favourite '3C' boxes - curiosity, creativity, courage 🤔 Her curiosity enables her to discover what it is people are looking for 🎨 Her creativity enables her to bring to reality things that did not exist before 🙋♀️ Her courage enables her to try new things and different ideas, even if they are a little risky. Thanks Dr Cath Cosgrave for introducing me to this energising and inspiring human who is bringing much needed #ruralhealth services to #ruralnsw.
