This chart is coming from World Economic Forum

By 2030, the workforce will prioritize a combination of advanced technical skills and human-centered capabilities. Skills like AI and bigdata, cybersecurity, and technological digitalliteracy will become essential as industries increasingly rely on digital systems and automation.

At the same time, resilience, flexibility, leadership, and lifelong learning will grow in importance, reflecting the need for adaptability and innovation in an uncertain and rapidly evolving world.

Emerging areas like environmental stewardship and systems thinking highlight a growing focus on sustainability and complex problem solving, while foundational skills like manual dexterity and basic math are expected to decline due to automation.

Success will hinge on blending technical expertise with creativity, leadership, and emotional intelligence, enabling individuals to navigate technological disruptions and drive meaningful change.

The future workforce will need to embrace continuous learning and align with global priorities such as sustainability, digital transformation, and human-centric leadership to thrive in this dynamic landscape.
