CANCOM UK Chief Technology Officer Mark Skelton thinks that flexible resourcing could be the way to fix a skills gap which has worsened since the arrival of COVID-19.
He said that nine in 10 (88 percent) of organisations admit they have a shortage of digital skills, which is already having a significant negative impact on productivity, efficiency and competitiveness.
Skelton said that the skills gap isn’t complex to comprehend; organisations are understaffed to deal with the demands they are faced with. Moreover, they often don’t have the time to allocate to train staff and keep up to date with all the new tech, on top of looking for new employees to remedy the situation with permanent manpower.
