Workforce planning is undergoing significant changes. It’s no longer just about aligning recruitment with current needs, but anticipating the disruptions of tomorrow.
According to the World Economic Forum, 22% of current jobs could disappear or drastically change by 2030 due to automation and the green transition. McKinsey notes that companies are still struggling to align business strategy with HR planning.
In Africa, demographic growth and accelerated urbanization are creating new needs. High-growth sectors: smart agriculture, renewable energy, and digital financial services. However, skills shortages remain a major challenge.
Tools to mobilize:
- Prospective mapping of critical skills,
- 3, 5, and 10-year HR scenarios,
- Strengthened dialogue between strategic leadership and HR,
- Partnerships with universities and training organizations.
Modern workforce planning must be a prospective and collective exercise. Those who engage early will have a major competitive advantage in the global talent war.
