Digitalization, Upskilling and Skilled Workers
summary
Speakers from SAP and the German Federal Employment Agency discuss how digital and ecological transformation plus demographic change and recent crises create a skilled-labor shortage—noting 137,000 unfilled IT jobs in Germany—and how that limits innovation. They outline approaches to increase workforce participation, retrain employees and career-changers, attract domestic and foreign talent, and embed social and ecological responsibility (health and diversity management); they also examine resilient organizational structures, New Work leadership cultures, future skills, and emerging technologies such as the metaverse.
