Digitalisation effect on HR and its role in
managing managing talent.
• Talent acquisition: Digital talent is scarce. Recruitment processes should portray your
organisation as an innovative digital brand.
• Talent development: Exploit your existing talent pool, providing employees with tailored
learning to transition them to digital.
• Talent retention: Adopt innovative and collaborative techniques and encourage the use of
digital platforms, allowing remote working.

The changing work force

By the year
2020, there
will be 85
million
fewer
skilled
workers than
businesses
need to
succeed.

It will become
impossible to hire
yourself out of a
skills gap.
For some
industries, that
time has already
arrived.

The Millennial Stampede is Changing the
Workforce
• Since 2011, approximately 10,000 Baby Boomers have turned 65 every day.
• Millennials will make up nearly half of the working population by 2020.
• They have an appetite for continual development; No tolerance for poor UX.

Generations in the Workplace
20
By now, most of us have learned that there are at least four generations
in the workplace:
• Traditionalists/Silents (Born between 1925 and 1946)
• Baby Boomers (Born between 1946 and 1964)
• Generation Xers (Born between 1965 and 1980)
• Generation Ys or Millennials (Born after 1980)
© 2016 Skillsoft
Studies of Millennials have found that:
21
• 64% of them say it’s a priority for them to make the world a better place.
• 72% would like to be their own boss.
• If they have a boss, 79% of them would want that boss to serve more as a coach or mentor.
• 88% prefer a collaborative work-culture rather than a competitive one.
• 74% want flexible work schedules.

Technology
• This generation has been plugged in since they were babies.
• They grew up with educational software and computer games.
• They think technology should be free.
• They want and expect services 24/7.
• They do not live in an 8–5 world.
• They function in an international

Smart Phone Technology
• They all have smart phones and expect to be in contact 24/7.
• Not a phone – a lifestyle management tool
• Staying “connected” is essential.

The Millennial Profile: Strengths
27
• Tech Savvy – Having grown up with computers, the internet and social media puts them at an
advantage.
• Multi-tasking – Used to having multiple responsibilities or goals to achieve at a time.
• Loyalty – Loyalty to the boss is the #1 reason they stay in a job, especially during the first few
years. Millennials want a boss who is willing to coach and teach them, motivate them to do
better and teach them new skills.
• Problem Solving – Millennials grew up learning how to figure things out on their own, they
can come up with creative ways to solve problems.
© 2016 Skillsoft
The Millennial Profile: Challenges
28
• Job Security – They are more likely to change jobs than generations before them …
2-3 years then move on.
• Work Ethic – Is not bad, just different. Millennials have NOT been raised to look
around and see what they should do next. They do best with a list of tasks to complete
and need to have control over their daily tasks by being able to choose what to do
next.
• Communication – They often resent being handed busywork with no explanation to
its purpose. Take the time to explain how their work will lead to specific results.
29
How do we manage millennials, our
future leaders?
© 2016 Skillsoft
What can managers do?
• Mentor your employees
• About how the company runs, what makes people of different generations work well together. Teach people
skills not just business process
• Great leaders can motivate all people by balancing processes and people’s needs for the good of the
company
• Encourage them to develop trust with others and empower people to do their jobs.
• Ask for input rather than telling them what to do. Open communication reduces resistance
• Want work-life balance.
• They value family and friends and want to work their eight hour day and go home. Older workers think long
hours show your loyalty and productivity. Younger workers often get things done faster. They value
efficiency and effectiveness by doing things faster

The role of learning in IT
• Retain: Retaining key employees who maintain tribal knowledge, provide business value or possess
intellectual capital valuable to the business should always be a top priority (source: CIO Insight)
• Reward: Implement an aggressive training program to enhance their skills and develop new skills in
other key areas (source: CIO Insight)
• Current: Once you attract these people you must give them a compelling learning environment to
stay current, as technology advances at an accelerating rate. (source: Bersin by Deloitte)

  • 26. © 2016 Skillsoft 26 Millennials Values Needs Strengths Challenges Engagement Motivation
  • 27. © 2016 Skillsoft The Millennial Profile: Strengths 27 • Tech Savvy – Having grown up with computers, the internet and social media puts them at an advantage. • Multi-tasking – Used to having multiple responsibilities or goals to achieve at a time. • Loyalty – Loyalty to the boss is the #1 reason they stay in a job, especially during the first few years. Millennials want a boss who is willing to coach and teach them, motivate them to do better and teach them new skills. • Problem Solving – Millennials grew up learning how to figure things out on their own, they can come up with creative ways to solve problems.
  • 28. © 2016 Skillsoft The Millennial Profile: Challenges 28 • Job Security – They are more likely to change jobs than generations before them … 2-3 years then move on. • Work Ethic – Is not bad, just different. Millennials have NOT been raised to look around and see what they should do next. They do best with a list of tasks to complete and need to have control over their daily tasks by being able to choose what to do next. • Communication – They often resent being handed busywork with no explanation to its purpose. Take the time to explain how their work will lead to specific results.
  • 29. 29 How do we manage millennials, our future leaders?
  • 30. © 2016 Skillsoft What can managers do? • Mentor your employees • About how the company runs, what makes people of different generations work well together. Teach people skills not just business process • Great leaders can motivate all people by balancing processes and people’s needs for the good of the company • Encourage them to develop trust with others and empower people to do their jobs. • Ask for input rather than telling them what to do. Open communication reduces resistance • Want work-life balance. • They value family and friends and want to work their eight hour day and go home. Older workers think long hours show your loyalty and productivity. Younger workers often get things done faster. They value efficiency and effectiveness by doing things faster
