Demonstrable skillets such as critical thinking, co-ordination, judgment, decision-making and complex problem solving will be the core demands for the work force of the future

The skills shortage in Canada is exacerbated by an aging demographics, digital literacy and a mismatch between immigration and labour market policies.The future of work will demand a work force that’s not just technically savvy, but one that has demonstrable skillets such as critical thinking, co-ordination, judgment, decision-making and complex problem solving.

An aging population, technological changes and digital skills needed for jobs, an incompatible immigration policy that has failed to bring people with the right skills and conversely, the lack of an inclusive climate for experienced newcomers to succeed, such as a lengthy accreditation process, has all created a disparity in the labour market, Ms. Williams said.

Both the experts said companies need to introduce upskilling and training initiatives for their employees. Whether employees want to hone their communication and leadership abilities or advance their expertise in specific technical domains, they have access to training that supports their career goals, he said.

Also, involvement in student government or clubs provides practical experience in leadership, negotiation and organizational skills. Even working in family businesses can be an invaluable training ground. It will teach young people responsibility, customer service and the nuances of running an enterprise, Mr. Muscat said.
