Asia Pacific Workforce Hopes and Fears Survey 2023

Is the workforce ready for reinvention?

Our latest survey of 19,500 workers across Asia Pacific highlights the need for organisations to transform. 39% believe that their organisation is unlikely to survive more than 10 years if it continues on the current path - similar to CEOs surveyed earlier this year. However, are workers ready for the transformation journey ahead? Our survey reveals six key factors underpinning the workforce's reinvention-readiness.

Leading in the new reality

Our survey will bring to life the challenges facing 1,634 CEOs in the region today. Asia Pacific CEOs recognise the dual imperative: to balance execution of short-term profitability and long-term transformation.

Asia Pacific's Time: Responding to the new reality

Asia Pacific is evolving rapidly. Businesses in the region must reshape uncertainty into opportunity, complexity into clarity, problems into potential. Our latest report sets out five aligned and mutually reinforcing success factors that help businesses rebuild trust, create value and deliver sustained outcomes in today’s landscape.

Why Asia Pacific?

The Asia Pacific region is a powerhouse of global economic growth. The Asia Pacific region accounts for more than half of the world’s population, one fifth of the world's economy, and is expected to contribute about 60% of all global growth in the next 10 years (Source: WEF, UNFPA).

Such growth promises a rising tide of prosperity but as Asia Pacific businesses grow and mature, the challenges confronting them and broader society become more challenging and complex.

That’s why PwC Asia Pacific is dedicated to fostering new ways of working to solve the important problems.

We do this by bringing together people with diverse ways of thinking and giving them the space to approach problems from all angles. We know the collective power of difference and its ability to spur creative breakthroughs.

Here’s how PwC is using it to solve important problems.

"Old solutions won’t work for new problems, so we’re dedicated to thinking differently about the challenges and opportunities facing Asia Pacific. Our priority is to help our clients succeed in this very dynamic and ever-changing part of the world, and to help build trust in society."
