What skills will be essential in the next five years?
In this frequently asked question, Kate Driver, CEO of IPAA ACT and co-founder and board member of the CoRE Learning Foundation, talks through interesting past research from the Foundation for Young Australian’s research into what employers were looking for in terms of skills of the workforce today, as well as some interesting new insights coming out of the Crawford School of Public Policy around what it means to show up to work with empathy and humility. Many different skills are needed in the public sector now and in the future. Organisations that embrace the diversity of skills and do not privilege one over the other stand to benefit the most.
