Exclusive study – The employee profiles necessary to face 2023

Partner in the performance of organizations and of their leaders, the HR consulting and services group Grant Alexander shares the results of an exclusive study intended to evaluate the morale of leaders for 2023.

Clear objectives in terms of sought-after profiles.

2023 is apprehended as a difficult year. In this context, profiles involved in work are identified as those most lacking to face serenely the twelve months to come. More particularly, two types are perceived as indispensable today to consolidate the teams: optimists, with a state of mind that creates positive energy (53%) and beginners, motivated at the idea of learning (51%). These invested profiles and instilling a real dynamic appeal to more than half of leaders, whatever the sector of activity or even the size of companies.

The more senior profiles seem today to represent a lesser necessity for companies: whether it is managers, capable of supervising and accompanying collaborators (35%), innovators, capable of imagining new solutions (31%) or even connectors, capable of carrying transversal projects (19%), these profiles are relegated to the background of recruitment aspirations of leaders.
