Technology investments by private and mid-market companies are changing how they compete for talent, according to the Deloitte Private 2019 Technology Trends report. The report found that 72% of executives consider reskilling workers as a key strategy to compete in the fierce talent market, with 500 leaders saying they are especially interested in artificial intelligence. Talent needs are fueling digital transformation in companies, with 68% of firms considering hiring people with the right skills for emerging technology, the report said.
