• Skills development and training and company culture have increased in importance by more than 20 points for business leaders since our research in 2021
• 41% of business leaders believe their company is doing a good job with company culture, compared to 24% of surveyed knowledge workers
• More than 9 in 10 respondents say that learning, career development, and training is important for them personally and for their company to thrive 
• Seven in 10 respondents believe location flexibility is important
• A higher percentage of fully remote (85%) and hybrid (84%) employees believe their companies have effective people managers than employees who work in the office (75%)
