The Role of Higher Education in Shaping Global Talent Competitiveness and Talent Growth

Abstract

The role of higher education in shaping global talent competitiveness and growth in the modern world is an excellent area of interest. To meet the growing demand for talented human capital in today's modern industries, HEIs must mobilize and standardize policies and develop programs for talent management among students as the future workforce. This study aimed to analyze the role of HEI in shaping talent competitiveness and growth. Selected higher education indicators that characterize the talent and growth development of at least 117 countries were analyzed using R version 4.1.3. The Global Talent Competitiveness Index (GTCI) was used to measure the talent competitiveness of the selected countries. To measure talent growth, we used the average annual change in the GTCI over the last five years; hence secondary data on the role of higher education in shaping talent competitiveness and growth were used. Various academic factors and skills that stimulate global talent competitiveness and growth are outlined in this study. Considering the factors that affect talent competitiveness and growth globally, colleges and universities place a strong emphasis on developing graduates' skill sets, advocating for, and organizing aspects in terms of mean years of schooling, including professional development, internet, and digital skills, and getting students ready for international co-invention and scientific publication.

Does Digitalization Lead to Environmental Sustainability and Energy Efficiency in China?

“…Consequently, it is anticipated that investing in digital technology will lead to improved macroeconomic performance. The effect of the age of digital technology on energy sector, which makes up a significant portion of the economy, cannot be ignored (Abbasi et al, 2022;Hao et al, 2022;Hereth, 2022;Husaini & Lean, 2022; K. Lee et al, 2021;Leikuma-Rimicane et al, 2022). One of these concerns is the impact of digitalization on energy efficiency in developing nations.…”

“…In the continually evolving era of globalization, education plays a crucial role in preparing the younger generation to become independent members of society, capable of self-sustenance (Nam, 2022;Olobia, 2023). This role of education extends beyond mere obligation, emerging as a demand of the times that requires every individual to equip themselves with diverse skills to navigate and thrive in the global competition (Leikuma-Rimicāne et al, 2022;Negescu et al, 2021). Particularly, the rapid advancement of science and technology underscores the critical need for proficiency in mathematics.…”
