Are Employers to Blame for the Skills Gap?
Most workers surveyed (63 percent) say they have developed new skills through on-the-job experience. Less than half of respondents (49 percent) report that their employer does a good job of providing a clear understanding of the skills needed for different roles and career paths. "It's going to be critical for organizations to define what new skills they're going to need," says David Smith, managing director for Accenture Talent & Organization. "Organizations haven't really done a good job at articulating the new skills of the future."
