A recent Korn Ferry (www.kornferry.com) study that includes a country-by-country analysis, finds that by 2030, there
will be a global human talent shortage of more than 85 million people, or roughly equivalent to the population of
Germany. This is a massive number, even if one allows for a ten or twenty percent margin of error. It is still huge.
While our focus at ASH is on craft, skilled and technical trade, the labor shortfall globally is so immense, most
industries will be impacted. This is not just a training challenge. It is not just a demographic issue. It is simply a
MATH problem.
Be intentional. Recruiting continues beyond the first day of employment. In this extremely challenging labor environment, recruiting is a continual process, even with your existing employees. Do you have a plan for this?
Ready. Recruit. Retain.
