Digital Upskilling And Futureproofing Your Company

According to MDEC’s (Malaysia Digital Economy Corp) Digital Talent Snapshot in Malaysia, Q4 of 2021 showed that the overall digital jobs have increased over the past year in Malaysia. We first explore why hiring digital talent is important for companies. Then, considering the changing landscape, we discuss what companies need to offer to be more appealing to employees who expect flexibility and digital agility. Finally, we get into how companies can futureproof themselves when digital transformations are happening so quickly.
