IDC: Resolving The AI Skills Gap Paradox

October 9, 2025 Beamery Team

IDC’s new report, Resolving The AI Skills Gap Paradox, reveals why so many organizations are struggling to turn AI ambition into action. While CEOs name the lack of AI-ready talent as their top obstacle, HR still lacks the technology investment needed to build and deploy those skills at scale.

Executives expect HR to deliver on reskilling, upskilling, and preparing employees for the impact of AI, yet HR technology investment remains low on the priority list. The result is a widening gap between what organizations need and the resources HR is given to achieve it. 

Read the report to understand:

  • Why (and in which areas) the AI skills gap is expanding
  • How HR and IT can work together to build the case for skills and task intelligence
  • What steps leading organizations are taking to align executives, budgets, and strategy

Download the full IDC report to learn how HR can earn the visibility, resources, and cross-functional support needed to prepare the workforce for the AI era, through tech-enabled skills intelligence.
