Developing a Stronger Workforce
The opportunities for business development and workforce prosperity in Guinea are enormous. A wealth of natural resources provides ongoing commercial certainty for global companies, and local communities who continue to support their presence are already thriving.
While many advanced economies are shedding traditional jobs, industrial employment is rising across the African continent. Guinea is already taking advantage of these opportunities, and to ensure an even better future for the workforce, investment in training should be prioritised.
Managerial and digital skills, complementary soft skills, such as communication, analytical and critical thinking, as well as straightforward business skills, will increase the attractiveness of Guinea in today’s global marketplace.
