the cognitive capacity to manage complexity.

EXECUTEWhat processes and tools to consider when facilitating international experience?
85%Talent diversity and inclusiveness are no longer seen as ‘soft’ issues,
but rather as crucial competitive capabilities. Of the CEOs whose companies have a formal diversity and inclusiveness strategy, 85%
think it’s improved the bottom line. And they also see such strategies as benefiting innovation, collaboration, customer
satisfaction, emerging customer needs and the ability to benefit technology.
PWC
71%CEOs are looking for the right mix of talent. Having people who can think and work in
highly different ways is crucial in a competitive environment where companies need to apply their capabilities in more innovative ways, partner successfully and harness
technology effectively. 81% of CEOs say their organisations are now looking for a much broader range of skills than in the past. And to find the skills they need, companies are searching in many more places - 78% of CEOs say their business always uses multiple
channels to recruit, while 71% say they actively search for talent in different geographies, industries and demographic segments. Nurturing adaptable talent is
also important: 81% of CEOs say that their business always looks to equip employees with new skills.
