On the other hand, it means that recent demands for workplace transformation have left us a little behind the curve. But while we may not have the immediate ability to stay as light on our feet as others, there are a number of ways we can drive positive outcomes through change while still respecting what\u2019s come before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"many-roads-lead-to-the-need-for-appropriate-talent\">Many roads lead to the need for appropriate talent<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Superior <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/2021\/06\/improving-customer-experience-in-manufacturing.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">customer experience (CX)<\/a>, sales effectiveness and sales forecasting are on face value, very different metrics of organisational success. However, it\u2019s increasingly apparent that one factor can improve the performance of all three: talent acquisition.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What I mean is that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/2021\/09\/make-tech-decisions-with-no-regrets.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">implementing modern strategies, processes and technologie<\/a>s is the first step in attracting the right talent. And by \u201cright\u201d talent I mean those with the unique (and often digital\/data-driven) skills that can help manufacturing carve out its territory in the new normal.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/form\/pdf\/state-of-industrial-sales-marketing-2021\/?d=7013y000002lSzrAAE&amp;nc=7013y000002Z4DHAA0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">State of Sales and Industrial Marketing report<\/a> underlines this need for innovation on the above metrics clearly. Cutting-edge sales technology is a key performance driver, yet only 18% of executives strongly agree that they work with such tech. Similarly, sophisticated sales forecasting analytics is a key performance driver, yet only 17% of executives strongly agree that they have access to such analytics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And when it comes to CX performance, strong cross-functional support is key, yet only 25% of executives strongly agree that they have such support.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All three statistics could increase by attracting the right talent with the right digital and technology skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/form\/pdf\/state-of-industrial-sales-marketing-2021\/?d=7013y000002lSzrAAE&amp;nc=7013y000002Z4DHAA0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/10\/manufacturing-talent-crossfunctional.png?strip=all&#038;quality=95\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n<aside class=\"contextual-driver has-text-align-left\">\n\t<header>\n\t\t<h2 class=\"tidbit-head\">\n\t\t\tThe State of Sales and Industrial Marketing 2021: Putting Industry 4.0 into practice\t\t<\/h2>\n\t<\/header>\n\t<div class=\"tidbit-body\">\n\t\t<p>Showing the biggest opportunities in people, process and digital marketing technology to impact sales and marketing performance.<\/p>\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<p class=\"tidbit-link label\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"label has-right-arrow has-right-arrow--small\" href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/form\/pdf\/state-of-industrial-sales-marketing-2021\/?d=7013y000002lSzrAAE&#038;nc=7013y000002Z4DHAA0\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t<span>Download now<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\n<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 14 10\"><path d=\"M13.92 5.38a1 1 0 0 0 0-.76.9.9 0 0 0-.17-.26.3.3 0 0 0 0-.07l-4-4a1 1 0 0 0-1.46 1.42L10.59 4H1.07a1 1 0 0 0 0 2h9.52l-2.3 2.29a1 1 0 0 0 0 1.42 1 1 0 0 0 1.42 0l4-4a.3.3 0 0 0 0-.07.9.9 0 0 0 .21-.26\" \/><\/svg>\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img class=\"tidbit img-mountain\"\n\t\tsrcset=\"\n\t\t\thttps:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/newsroom\/assets\/images\/article-tidbit-mountain-large@0.5x.png 84w,\n\t\t\thttps:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/newsroom\/assets\/images\/article-tidbit-mountain-large@1x.png 168w,\n\t\t\thttps:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/newsroom\/assets\/images\/article-tidbit-mountain-large@2x.png 336w\n\t\t\"\n\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/newsroom\/assets\/images\/article-tidbit-mountain-large@1x.png\"\n\t\talt=\"Illustration of mountain\"\n\t\tsizes=\"(min-width:1024px) 175px, 130px\"\n\t>\n\t<\/aside>\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"attracting-the-right-talent-to-manufacturing\">Attracting the right talent to manufacturing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting the right people in the right positions to improve on the key metrics that drive success requires action on multiple fronts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Manufacturers need to embrace the future by being innovative, adaptable and change-management focused. In many cases, attracting the right talent isn\u2019t only a case of upgrading systems, technologies and processes, but creating the right roles that will harness those upgrades.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, the manufacturing industry is relatively new to digital \u2014 but we all know how important it is to the future of work. To implement and make efficient use of new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/resources\/articles\/digital-marketing\/\">digital marketing<\/a> systems or sales platforms, you need talent that can work with data and analytics, which for many manufacturers is foreign territory.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, training and enablement of existing employees is also imperative, but there\u2019s no denying that new waves of talent bring with them new sets of skills.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stemming off from the need for digital skills is the challenge to navigate what is an even newer space for manufacturing: social media. Whether selling to both businesses and consumers, or only direct to businesses and dealing with consumers via warranties, manufacturers need to consider how they can nurture great CX and relationships through social media. Once again, creating the right roles to service such outcomes will attract the right talent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/form\/pdf\/state-of-industrial-sales-marketing-2021\/?d=7013y000002lSzrAAE&amp;nc=7013y000002Z4DHAA0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/10\/manufacturing-talent-executives.png?strip=all&#038;quality=95\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n<aside class=\"contextual-driver has-text-align-left\">\n\t<header>\n\t\t<h2 class=\"tidbit-head\">\n\t\t\tThe State of Sales and Industrial Marketing 2021: Putting Industry 4.0 into practice\t\t<\/h2>\n\t<\/header>\n\t<div class=\"tidbit-body\">\n\t\t<p>Showing the biggest opportunities in people, process and digital marketing technology to impact sales and marketing performance.<\/p>\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<p class=\"tidbit-link label\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"label has-right-arrow has-right-arrow--small\" href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/form\/pdf\/state-of-industrial-sales-marketing-2021\/?d=7013y000002lSzrAAE&#038;nc=7013y000002Z4DHAA0\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t<span>Download now<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\n<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 14 10\"><path d=\"M13.92 5.38a1 1 0 0 0 0-.76.9.9 0 0 0-.17-.26.3.3 0 0 0 0-.07l-4-4a1 1 0 0 0-1.46 1.42L10.59 4H1.07a1 1 0 0 0 0 2h9.52l-2.3 2.29a1 1 0 0 0 0 1.42 1 1 0 0 0 1.42 0l4-4a.3.3 0 0 0 0-.07.9.9 0 0 0 .21-.26\" \/><\/svg>\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img class=\"tidbit img-mountain\"\n\t\tsrcset=\"\n\t\t\thttps:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/newsroom\/assets\/images\/article-tidbit-mountain-large@0.5x.png 84w,\n\t\t\thttps:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/newsroom\/assets\/images\/article-tidbit-mountain-large@1x.png 168w,\n\t\t\thttps:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/newsroom\/assets\/images\/article-tidbit-mountain-large@2x.png 336w\n\t\t\"\n\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/newsroom\/assets\/images\/article-tidbit-mountain-large@1x.png\"\n\t\talt=\"Illustration of mountain\"\n\t\tsizes=\"(min-width:1024px) 175px, 130px\"\n\t>\n\t<\/aside>\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-great-resignation-and-the-future-of-work\">The Great Resignation and the future of work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re yet to hear about The Great Resignation, it\u2019s a phenomenon that began in the US, where large percentages of workers across all industries quit their jobs due to practical, personal and philosophical reasons after the COVID-19 pandemic threw everything into disarray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This phenomenon has spread around the world, with Australia set to experience its own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smartcompany.com.au\/people-human-resources\/recruitment-hiring\/great-resignation-coming-but-is-australia-ready\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wave of resignations<\/a>. Research conducted by PwC and Deloitte revealed that almost 40% of workers are planning to find a new job in the next 12 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While this mass exodus might sound daunting, it creates great opportunity for our industry. Manufacturing employee demographics are already shifting, with the older generation moving towards retirement. We are in a prime position to develop a workplace culture that attracts talent not only through modernised positions, but through pivoting towards the new workplace normal \u2014 offering flexibility, hybrid work options and dynamic employee experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though 41% of surveyed executives say that increasing both flexibility and adaptability in service of a new workplace culture is their biggest challenge, we are moving into a timeline where that challenge can be more readily met.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, we have all the insights and opportunities to improve on all mentioned metrics with the right talent. We may have to do so over a longer period of time than other industries, but with innovation and focus, we are guaranteed to make great strides in the right direction.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<aside class=\"contextual-driver has-text-align-left\">\n\t<header>\n\t\t<h2 class=\"tidbit-head\">\n\t\t\tThe State of Sales and Industrial Marketing 2021: Putting Industry 4.0 into practice\t\t<\/h2>\n\t<\/header>\n\t<div class=\"tidbit-body\">\n\t\t<p>Showing the biggest opportunities in people, process and digital marketing technology to impact sales and marketing performance.<\/p>\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<p class=\"tidbit-link label\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"label has-right-arrow has-right-arrow--small\" href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/form\/pdf\/state-of-industrial-sales-marketing-2021\/?d=7013y000002lSzrAAE&#038;nc=7013y000002Z4DHAA0\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t<span>Download now<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\n<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 14 10\"><path d=\"M13.92 5.38a1 1 0 0 0 0-.76.9.9 0 0 0-.17-.26.3.3 0 0 0 0-.07l-4-4a1 1 0 0 0-1.46 1.42L10.59 4H1.07a1 1 0 0 0 0 2h9.52l-2.3 2.29a1 1 0 0 0 0 1.42 1 1 0 0 0 1.42 0l4-4a.3.3 0 0 0 0-.07.9.9 0 0 0 .21-.26\" \/><\/svg>\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img class=\"tidbit img-mountain\"\n\t\tsrcset=\"\n\t\t\thttps:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/newsroom\/assets\/images\/article-tidbit-mountain-large@0.5x.png 84w,\n\t\t\thttps:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/newsroom\/assets\/images\/article-tidbit-mountain-large@1x.png 168w,\n\t\t\thttps:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/newsroom\/assets\/images\/article-tidbit-mountain-large@2x.png 336w\n\t\t\"\n\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/newsroom\/assets\/images\/article-tidbit-mountain-large@1x.png\"\n\t\talt=\"Illustration of mountain\"\n\t\tsizes=\"(min-width:1024px) 175px, 130px\"\n\t>\n\t<\/aside>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The State of Sales and Industrial Marketing 2021: Putting Industry 4.0 Into Practice \u2013 2nd edition report presents a series of challenges for the manufacturing industry, especially when in the context of the present and future of work.
