McKinsey recently shared a guide on generative AI for CIOs and CTOs, outlining nine steps to unlock annual values ranging from $2.6 to $4.4 trillion. The guide focuses not just on the technical side but also stresses the importance of teaching new skills to people in different roles and at different skill levels.

McKinsey highlights the crucial role of upskilling programs, especially for non-technical jobs, to make sure everyone can benefit from generative AI. While skilled software developers see a boost in productivity, the guide also points out how teaching new skills can help junior developers and people in non-technical roles like customer service, leading to increased productivity and lower turnover.

The article underscores the importance of having a thoughtful talent management strategy, emphasizing the shift towards a workforce with the right skills for the future. If you want to learn more about McKinsey’s recommendations, you can explore the full article by clicking here.
