RECOMMENDATIONS
Following the analysis of our data sets, market research and client commentary, IDEX Consulting proposes the below recommendations which businesses and professionals can consider to inform their business and talent strategies.
UNDERSTAND AI OPPORTUNITIES & THREATS
As technology continues to advance at a rapid pace and revolutionise how businesses operate, it’s essential for employers to stay ahead of developments and new research. This will help them to understand implications and opportunities, and leverage AI tools at the right time to aid their competitive advantage.
CARRY OUT DUE DILIGENCE TO TEST AND VALIDATE AI TOOLS AND SOFTWARE
Though automated software promises to provide valuable insights, reduce errors and enhance productivity, businesses have a legal responsibility to ensure they are configured properly. Employees must pay particular attention to potential data breaches and information verification to ensure compliance and avoid misinformation.
INVEST RESOURCE AND BUDGET INTO AI SPECIFIC TRAINING
With 82% of professionals stating they’d like to improve their skills and knowledge on AI related technologies, but only 27% receiving external training, it’s important for employers to support people with appropriate training. This may include working closely with HR and Talent Development teams to incorporate AI tech-based training in internal courses and / or employing external courses if specific expertise is needed.
ADAPT YOUR HIRING STRATEGY TO ATTRACT SPECIALISED TALENT
AI talent scarcity is a common global concern among businesses. It’s therefore never been more important for organisations to refine their talent attraction methods with effective tactics and messaging specific to this group of professionals. Companies must find a way to stand out and engage AI specialised talent that is fundamentally re-defining the future of business.
