Building Tomorrow's Workforce Today
A Bloomberg analysis of United Nations World Population Division data reveals that Africa’s potential workforce is projected to surpass that of Asia by the end of the 21st century. With such significant growth on the horizon, the critical question is whether this expanding labor force will be future-ready—equipped with the skills needed to seize emerging opportunities.
Since a strong workforce can translate into a thriving economy, there must be a deliberate focus on how organizations attract, develop, motivate, and retain talent to drive sustainable growth.
