Adaptable employees the future for businesses

Workers' ability to deal with change is becoming a major factor in defining their employability, according to a new report.

Released by talent management specialist Right Management, ‘The Flux Report’ reveals that in five years’ time, 91% of HR directors think it’s likely that people will be recruited on their ability to deal with change and uncertainty.

Ian Symes, General Manager at Right Management UK & Ireland says: “It’s not high on the agenda so far but that’s changing very quickly. Three years ago I’d have put it at 10^th to 15^th place on the agenda but now it’s probably in the top five.”
