Manpowergroup To Lead Discussions On People-First Transformation At The World Economic Forum's 2025 Annual Meeting

(MENAFN- PR Newswire) "The significant growth opportunities presented by technological change, generative AI, and the green transition can only be realized if companies have access to the skilled talent they need to accelerate transformation, and people have access to growth jobs," said Jonas Prising, ManpowerGroup Chair & CEO. "At the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting this week we will address the core challenge facing companies and governments: how to develop practical solutions to help people overcome the challenges in many markets as they struggle to see where their skills fit in a rapidly evolving world of work. The workforce remains a company's most valuable resource and targeted upskilling is needed to accelerate growth, adapt and unlock human potential."

Prising will lead a key strategic session of WEF's Centre for the New Economy and Society Advisory Board, where global leaders will address critical economic and societal challenges shaping 2025 and beyond.

This event will be available to watch on-demand on Thursday, January 23 at 1 pm CET/7 am EST at href="" rel="nofollow" manpowergrou .
