2023 Talent Trends: Industrial Goods and Services

April 4, 2023

Each year, Business Talent Group releases the High-End Independent Talent Report, looking across industries and business functions to analyze how business leaders deploy top independent talent to fill critical skill, expertise, and leadership gaps. Here are the key industrial goods trends for 2023.

Industrial goods and services leaders are facing several significant trends this year, including the adoption of advanced technologies, supply chain struggles, talent disruption, and a demand for more sustainable manufacturing. In response, they’re seeking on-demand talent who can fill key operational roles as interim leaders and help with needs from organizational design to supply chain resilience to financial controls and planning.
