Introducing eQ8’s Game-Changing Future Skills Forecasting

The team at eQ8 is excited to announce the release of our new Future Skills Forecasting.? This feature will give organizations greater clarity into where they are heading and the specific skills required to get them there.

With many jobs in today’s market constantly evolving, it can be hard to know what skills are needed to succeed. ?In fact, 79% of CEOs are concerned about skill availability and its impact on innovation, cost, quality, and growth of their organization.

Our Future Skills Forecasting mitigates this concern so that both employers and employees feel prepared to take on the job challenges of tomorrow.

This approach is the first of its kind globally - where most skills gaps in other products are inferred from the broader labor market and missing context from an organization’s unique strategic and operational needs, ?eQ8’s Future Skills Forecasting integrates market data with an organization’s own strategy. ?The eQ8 forecast provides insight into the skills required to meet the specific needs of each organization, whether it is about growth, transformation, digitization, change – or all of the above!

Insights into the largest skill gaps, emerging skills, and changing skill compositions enables companies to truly plan for the future. ?As Co-Founder Chris Hare puts it, “The eQ8 insights are truly unique, as they the project the future skills needed by the organizations themselves.?We did not see any solutions addressing the intersection of external future skills insights and internal demand forecasting, so we created it.”

Insights derived from Future Skills Forecasting will help create a future-ready workforce where up-skilling, cross-skilling, and re-skilling can be optimized.? Understanding the future roadmap of skills will create a more sustainable and socially responsible approach for the workforce.? Importantly, organizations can ensure they have the requisite skills in place to achieve their purpose.?
