The demand for new skills is outpacing supply. Despite the doubling of job vacancies since 2020, the #workforce is ageing rapidly with a skills mismatch — the European #electricity industry reported that up to half of their workforce will be eligible for retirement in the next 5-10 years, and in the UK, more than half (52%) of the electricity sector’s workforce is over 45 years old. Similarly in Asia Pacific, Indonesia reports that 57% of #powersector players are facing skills shortage for operating and maintaining #renewable energy projects. The makeup of the energy workforce is transforming dramatically, with younger and less-experienced employees. Over 56% of workers have under 10 years of service, and in some roles, like engineers and line workers, the number exceeds 60%. The industry needs to shift focus from recruitment to training, mentorship, and development for this new talent. https://lnkd.in/daKXkrYY

Resolving #supplychain #safety & #risks issues is one of the most effective cost reduction routes for organisations. It starts by getting everyone on the same page: by aligning procurement with business strategy, streamlining the supplier base, using data for more sophisticated tracking and analysis of spend, and optimising the inventory mix, your organisation can supercharge its competitive positioning. There’s also a flipside. While supply improvement offers the opportunity for significant savings, it can also be one of the largest drains on resources, particularly if ownership is fragmented. dss⁺ helps companies enhance supply chain management without augmenting #operationalrisk, without business interruption, and with a plan tailored to their circumstances. #businesscontinuity https://lnkd.in/deDh4yqM

In heavy industries, effective contractor management isn't just a necessity — it’s a performance enabler.    Palaniappan Chidambaram, APAC Regional Operational Risk Management Lead at dss⁺, unpacks this critical topic in our #LeadershipDynamics series: - The blind spots: Limited leadership visibility, reactive contractor engagement, and fear-based cultures are holding organisations back. - Conviction in action: How a risk-based approach drives impactful outcomes - timely and safe project execution, operational reliability, and lasting excellence. - A case in point: A client’s capital project journey, evolved from low visibility and risk awareness to proactive, empowered leadership with care, transforming the dynamics and performance for both contractors and employees.   Together, let’s shape industries where safety, reliability, and contractor partnerships thrive.      #dssLeadershipDynamics #ContractorManagement #PerformanceExcellence #Safety #riskmanagement

Growing organisations face two main cultural questions: 1- What organisational culture will support our growth? 2- How can we align every member of our teams at every level with this desired culture? At dss⁺, "We are capable of driving changes. It does not matter the technical nature of the change; it could be around #safety, the environment, or how to run your operation. It is about changing the mindset and the behaviour of the people to change the culture of the company" - Davide Vassallo, dss⁺ CEO https://lnkd.in/dFfjiuxc

An #aerospace research company in the UK partnered with dss⁺ to enhance its #safety #riskmanagement, governance, and #safetyculture.
