Not lack of talent, senior business leaders point to these key factors posing obstacles... | Company Business News
A new survey by Biz Staffing Comrade found that only 5% of senior business leaders blame talent shortages for execution gaps. Instead, 59% point to shifting priorities, and 36% say processes and systems have not kept pace. Most change fails on the people side, not technology. That means hiring faster is not the fix. Build flexibility into your teams and ways of working.

Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:Before you spend more on new tools, review your current change plans and check whether your team's roles, skills and ways of working can absorb shifting priorities. A conversation with your HR or staffing partner on whether to hire, develop or redeploy people can help you decide.
