IT Talent Shortage Looms, Better Practices Needed

November 8th, 2006

Technology companies worldwide are still struggling to find and retain talent. They have a ways to go to truly develop the capabilities needed to ensure continued success in human capital management.

A report from PricewaterhouseCoopers warns of a looming talent shortage, and calls attention to the need for more effective management strategies.

Graham Wyllie, director at PricewaterhouseCoopers, comments on the report:

Technology companies have always had to compete for the best and the brightest, but with an industry boom they are faced with a looming talent shortage. It is no longer adequate for technology employees to have an advanced degree in mathematics and sciences. They need a strong drive to succeed, a willingness to learn, collaborate and innovate, and the capacity to manage change. … It’s no longer a mere battle for talent. The real contest will be won through the development of superior tools and strategies for managing human capital across the enterprise.
