Talent Powerhouses: What Sets Top Economies Apart

In today’s competitive global economy, talent is key. In this episode, we dive into the IMD World Talent Ranking 2024 with Professor Arturo Bris, Director of the World Competitiveness Center at the Institute for Management Development (IMD). Discover how top economies like Switzerland (ranked 1st), Singapore (2nd), and Nordic countries like Denmark (3rd), Norway (4th) and Sweden (6th) are excelling in talent development. We also discuss Malaysia's position at 33rd, the impact of AI, and the importance of inclusivity, and what businesses must do to stay competitive in the global talent race.
