How ready is Hong Kong for the ESG talent surge?

Businesses are under pressure to adapt, and those with the right ESG talent will have the edge. But which roles and skills are most in demand?

ConnectedGroup reposted this
Hong Kong’s talent challenges are well-documented, between talent outflows, and localisation trends, companies are fighting over a shrinking talent pool. Yet, too often, diversity, equity & inclusion (DEI) is treated as a PR initiative rather than a real business priority. With an ageing population and declining birth rates, companies that don’t actively embrace diverse talent will struggle to stay competitive. At ConnectedSolutions, we look at this through the technology transformation lens to identify how transformation projects can both embrace diverse talent sources and enable effective longer-term integration.
