The Science of Working Smarter

3. The Skills Gap is real…
SOURCE: ManpowerGroup 2013 Talent Shortage Survey, Gallup Poll, The Chronicle of Higher Education, The BBC,
the International Monetary Fund, MSME 2015, World Bank
96% of US education institutions believe they prepare students for work.
11% of US business leaders say that today’s college graduates have the skills
and competencies that their business needs.
Fullbridge tackles the skills gap through a highly effective pedagogical approach
that actively engages students, drives peer-to-peer learning through workplace
simulations, and incorporates world-class coaching.
~5.9M middle and high skilled jobs are going unfilled in the U.S.
~7.8M workers are unemployed in the U.S.
The Business Roundtable employer survey found “the most serious [skills]
gaps are… ‘soft skills,’ such as work ethic, accountability and self-
motivation.”
Since this younger generation will switch jobs 15 to 20 times, employers lack
incentives to provide the necessary training.
