Conceição Laura C,Pereira Leandro F,Dias Álvaro L.The Key Competencies for the Future of Work—A Bibliometric Study[J].Journal of Chinese Human Resources Management,2023,14(01):3-37. DOI： 10.47297/wspchrmWSP2040-800501.20231401.
The constant technological transformations that have emerged over the last few decades have forced a fast adjustment caused both by the digitalization and automation processes that have revolutionized the job market. Even though the fourth industrial revolution allows the emergence of numerous job opportunities
it brings different restrictions that directly affect the daily lives of professionals and organizations. On the other hand
this implementation requires not only a large financial investment but also
and perhaps the most critical obstacle in this process
the training of human resources to be able to assimilate the complexity of these digital transformations. Thus
the main objective of this research is to try to understand which skills will be most required by the labor market in the future. To achieve this primary objective
a bibliometric study was carried out
based on the World Economic Forum report and two main databases: Web of Science and Scopus.
