This regional report explores the risks and challenges organisations currently face, and how talent is now key to leveraging the digital advances we depend upon for growth and value creation. Specific to respondents across Latin America, the report is based on data from our 2022 global report, Strengthening the human-centric core of Industry 5.0. Additional insights from Boyden experts in various sectors across the region help form a nuanced picture of the Latin American leadership and executive talent landscape.
