The industry is dealing with a flood of new technology. Both knowledge and frontline workers need to skill up and monitor their performance as technological breakthroughs such as automation take hold in all sectors. This is where upskilling comes into play.
Business leaders feel that reskilling and up-skilling should be incorporated into workforce development models to assist employees in adapting to changing business conditions with agility. Organisations must invest in IT skills across the board to have a tech-savvy workforce capable of embracing digital change.
