Don't Have Skills? Better Get Motivated - Kevin H. Johnson, Forbes

Our third survey on the state of the skills gap in the U.S. found saw some interesting trends: 84% of respondents believe there is a skills gap, a 6% increase from 2017. 39% of respondents feel personally affected by the skills gap, a 4% increase from last year. 43% expect automation/AI to be able to do their jobs within five years; that figure jumps to 54% among men, compared with only 34% of women. 51% say they’d quit a job if their employer did not offer training necessary for advancing in their careers. https://www.forbes.com/sites/kevinhjohnson/2018/11/19/dont-have-skills-better-get-motivated/
