Our Purpose and outcomes

Contact Us

  • Across the globe, organizations of all sizes are struggling to find, build, and retain skilled talent, exacerbated by AI disruption. A staggering 87% of companies are already facing skill gaps or expect them soon (McKinsey, 2023), while only 46% of graduates are considered employable (World Economic Forum, 2023). Higher education systems lag behind industry needs, creating a gap in job readiness. Governments and economic systems are under pressure, with 73 million youth unemployed globally (ILO, 2024), while policies remain disconnected from workforce realities.

    Emerging trends like AI, automation, Gen Z/Alpha expectations, the need for reskilling, climate change, industry innovations, entrepreneurial needs, and emerging roles further complicate the landscape. Organizations are struggling to navigate these shifts, leading to additional challenges: outdated talent strategies, HR models that fail to keep pace, broken talent pipelines, and weak startup talent ecosystems. Workforce inefficiencies hinder economic growth, and regulatory uncertainty complicates alignment with shifting policies.

    As a result, organizations are becoming increasingly uncertain about what the future of human capital means for their workforce and which talent model is right for them.

    The Growth Story exists to bridge this increasing global human capital gap, helping organizations, institutions, and governments design future-ready strategies. We partner with corporates, MNCs, startups, universities, governments, and multilateral agencies to build agile, sustainable human capital systems tailored to their needs.
