The ‘Top 20’ (out of 93 countries)
Many talent
competitive countries
are small and rich,
and the majority of
GTCI leaders are
European
– Openness is
critically important
– Employable skills
are the goal
– Balancing Global
Knowledge Skills
and Vocational
Skills is a key to
success

18 million unemployed in Europe, including 5 million
young people …
8 million vacant positions in Europe and the USA
…
The talent war in Asia …
60% of US college grads cannot find a job in
their field, and 30% of South Korean graduates
are not employable …
Technology and automation are more
rapidly hollowing out the job market
than we expected.
15. Paul Evans
• Lessons from the GTCI talent leader: CH
• The importance of cross-over paths into
higher education
• Continuing education
The model of 20 years of education followed by
40 years of work doesn’t fit with the realities
of today’s fast-moving world
