In its Talent Priorities for the Digital Enterprise report, Gartner stated that “leading IT executives will focus on growing the share of IT employees who have non-traditional backgrounds”; those that add to IT’s blend of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives.
It’s estimated that 4.2M new roles will be created in the Salesforce ecosystem by 2024. But will businesses be able to fill those roles? What happens when all these businesses are lining up to fish from the same pond; a pond that is incapable of restocking its talent at the same rate it’s being snapped up?
“Traditional approaches to recruiting are expensive and ineffective at attracting critical IT talent to support digital transformation. New approaches are necessary to offset current talent shortages, and to ultimately accelerate execution on digital business transformation objectives.”

How talent shortages impact businesses
- Inability to innovate, grow, and compete
- Failure to achieve ROI
- No capacity to scale to meet demand or new opportunities
- Inability to exploit the latest products and updates
- Delays to migrations and implementations
- Increased pressure on exiting staff and higher turnover
- Greater vulnerability to security threats and data protection issues
