Abstract: Technologies such as Artificial Intelligence and Automation are shifting the human workforce to new roles, creating the need for new skills. This research aimed to understand the expectations of companies in Chihuahua, Mexico, regarding the skills required for the future of work and compare them with the results presented by the World Economic Forum in its 2018 Future of Jobs Report. A survey was conducted among 359 companies on this topic. The main findings reveal a 60% match between the top 10 skill groups prioritized globally and locally. However, skills such as "Technology Design and Programming," "Emotional Intelligence," "Reasoning, Problem-Solving, and Ideation," and "System Analysis and Evaluation" are considered crucial globally but not locally.
