At Mind-Gap, we understand the accelerating changes in the workforce, driven by technological advancements, demographic shifts and economic pressures. The Future of Jobs Report 2025 by the World Economic Forum highlights several key trends reshaping the global labour market. These include the increasing importance of generative AI, automation and green transition jobs, alongside the challenge of skills disruption. Businesses today are facing significant transformation but, with the right strategies and leadership, they can navigate these changes successfully.
One of the report’s key findings is that job displacement is set to continue, with 92 million jobs expected to be displaced by 2030, driven by macrotrends like AI, automation and economic shifts. However, the same report forecasts a creation of 170 million new jobs, particularly in areas like AI, big data and green technologies. At Mind-Gap, we focus on helping organisations reskill and upskill their teams to ensure they can meet the demands of this new job landscape. By fostering leadership capabilities and strategic thinking, businesses can equip their workforce to succeed in these emerging fields.
Another significant insight is the growing demand for leadership and human-machine collaboration skills. As automation continues to transform tasks across industries, it’s crucial that organisations foster a culture of adaptability, creativity, and resilience. At Mind-Gap, we support companies in developing these skills through tailored leadership development programmes that empower teams to embrace change and collaborate with AI and automation tools. Our approach focuses on fostering the resilience and problem-solving abilities required in this rapidly evolving workforce.
The Future of Jobs Report 2025 also points out that green transition jobs are on the rise, driven by a global push for sustainability and the green economy. By 2030, jobs in renewable energy, environmental engineering, and climate adaptation are expected to grow significantly. Mind-Gap is passionate about sustainability and well-positioned to help organisations integrate sustainability into their workforce strategies. Through focused training on green skills and sustainability leadership, we help businesses not only transition smoothly into these sectors but also contribute to a more sustainable future.
As businesses look to stay ahead of these trends, the importance of investing in continuous learning and development cannot be overstated. At Mind-Gap, we are committed to helping organisations build resilient, future-ready teams through tailored leadership training, reskilling programmes, and strategic workforce planning. We’re here to guide you through the complex transitions ahead, ensuring your team is equipped for the jobs of tomorrow.
