SINGAPORE employees are aware they need to upskill but believe their companies are not providing enough learning and development opportunities, according to a survey by professional network LinkedIn.
"These skills may be nascent now but will potentially see wide-scale adoption in the future," said the report. "At the same time, employees need to be empowered and motivated to learn on their own terms, given difficulties in finding time and accessing opportunities," added Ms Ang. As to what was lacking, survey respondents were split equally between soft skills such as managing people, negotiation or presenting and job role specific skills such as digital marketing, financial modeling, and agile methodologies.
LinkedIn's report surveyed 4,136 employees and 844 L&D professionals across Australia, India, Japan and Singapore, and identifies the top 10 rising skills of LinkedIn members in the region over the last five years by looking at the skills listed by members with the highest month-on-month growth.
