Background
Despite the many advancements in the 4IR, companies continue to face
challenges in maintaining frontline talent stability and productivity .
This is due to a global talent shortage, shifting worker preferences, and the
rapid adoption of new technologies that have fundamentally changed the
role of operators.
To address this, we charted the “Frontline Talent of the Future”
initiative about a year ago – this initiative aimed to codify learnings from
world class manufacturers about the talent innovations and transformations
that enabled them to achieve world class performance.
As part of our pilot program, we developed a robust assessment informed
by leading experts, conducted 80+ interviews and feedback sessions,
collected a library of 60+ impact -oriented talent innovations , and visited
8 sites .
Now, this initiative is joining forces with the Global Lighthouse
Network. This means starting in 2025 sites can apply to be recognized
for achieving world -class performance with distinction in talent
transformation.
