What does the labor market demand in 2021?

Among the skills, companies are expected to demand most in 2021 are, a part from the usual ones such as creativity, commitment to the company and flexibility, some new points that grow from the new situation in which we all find ourselves:

Resilience

As it is obvious in the volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous environment, the so-called VUCA, where uncertainty is the order of the day, you have to be able to adapt and stay strong, patient and calm.

Critical thinking

… that allows us to have new ideas, makes us more analytical, curious and even helps to solve problems in a more creative way.

Teamwork

It has already been said many times but now with remote working on the rise, it is more than ever necessary to know how to work as a team. You have to learn a new discipline of remote communication to work well as a team in a new way.

Growth mindset

… a mindset of constant development. Someone willing to face new challenges and with a vision of the future.

Decision-making based on data

The quantitative objectives of all our actions now have the essential support of data analysis and Big Data. Knowing how to analyse the available data becomes a more and more essential qualification when it comes to recognizing opportunities and drawing the most effective conclusions.

Digital skills

This qualification has grown in importance in recent years to dominate the top 10 of the most demanded skills now. It has developed from “not being afraid of the digital” to knowing how to proactively cope with new programs or digital tools when looking for the best solutions to the problem. Companies are looking for employees who constantly increase these skills.
And there we are by the next point on the list:

Constant and independent learning

The company wants to see that you can adapt easily – going back to the VUCA environment from the beginning. It´s not only about having the concern to constantly learn, it is important to have the CAPACITY to learn and apply the new. Whatever it is.

So here we are with our learning platform.
