Pilot programmes on the way to match companies with ‘fractional talent’

[SINGAPORE] Upcoming pilot programmes will match employers with “fractional” leaders – professionals offering C-suite services on a part-time basis – to tackle talent shortages.

Companies have shown interest in the fractional work model, said Brandon Lee, assistant chief executive of Workforce Singapore’s (WSG) transformation support group.

WSG is therefore working with partners – which include employers, industry associations, employment agencies, professional services firms and talent platforms – to develop these pilots.
