The Future of Work: Skills That Will Shape 2030

According to the latest World Economic Forum – Future of Jobs Report, over a third of today’s skills will evolve or disappear by 2030.

Technology, AI, and data are transforming how we work, learn, and lead, but the real differentiator isn’t just what we know. It’s how we think, adapt, and connect.

From Power Skills to Tech + Human Skills

In 2025, power skills are leading the way. Analytical thinking remains the most in-demand skill for employers, followed closely by resilience, flexibility and agility, leadership and social influence, creative

thinking, and motivation.

These are the skills that help people navigate change, collaborate effectively, and bring ideas to life - and they’re here to stay.

But as we look ahead to 2030, the landscape begins to shift.

While human skills will remain vital, technological and sustainability-focused skills are expected to grow faster than any others.

This shift highlights a need for professionals who can not only lead and manage talent but also understand and leverage new technologies, while adapting to green transitions in a rapidly evolving world.
