Hays’ Post

Succession planning an industry that is already suffering a skills shortage may seem like a distant issue, however in the below recent Hays report, we need immediate and long term strategies to protect the #engineering industry for now and the future. Organisations need to take action now to ensure we have an industry that can support future and current needs.

"So tell me Mads, what is it, you guys do at Hays?" 🤔 Well ... if I tell you we help organisations navigate the skills disruption, you know what we do - right? No? Let me put in some other words. 😅 The jobs we have and the skills we use to do these jobs are changing, FAST! And, if you add the spice of the shortage in highly-skilled talent, most organisations are faced with a big issue - finding, attracting and retaining the skills and talent they need. Here's where we, and this report, come into the picture! 👇

Are you brain dead to the brain drain? Biotechnology, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, life sciences… they are all industries that have the potential to make our world a better, healthier place. But in an ever-growing industry, finding and keeping talent needed to sustain rapid growth amongst fierce competition is a shared challenge. Just take a look at the 2023 Global Biopharma Resilience index. Across 5 key pillars –supply chain resilience, talent pool, R&D ecosystem, manufacturing agility, and government policy and regulation – you’ll find that talent pool resilience was the WEAKEST factor in 2021 and shows the STEEPEST decline. So when we’re facing a brain drain, how can we gain brains? ➡️ The brain goes where its valued: never underestimate the value of recognition. Rewarding talent – whether through incentives, award nominations or simply positive feedback – is a simple way to help foster satisfaction and loyalty. ➡️ The brain goes for security: uncertainty about the future will have talent looking elsewhere. Keep open channels of communication to dispel fears about job security. ➡️ Have one eye on the future: In a rapidly evolving industry, new skills are constantly needed. For instance, with the rise of AI, computer scientists are a hot commodity. Considering your organisation’s direction and getting ahead of the hiring curve can help secure talent before demand outweighs supply. ➡️ Upskill your brains: rather than chasing external hires for specialist roles, think about plugging the skills gap by developing existing talent. The initial investment of training will soon be outweighed by the cost of hiring from a slim talent pool! #braindrain #lifesciences #hiringtrends #talentacquisition
