Materials & Mining

Key skills for people in the mining industry.

The mining industry remains a key sector for many regions in the world. It is a source of raw materials that drive many industries. However, there are new challenges facing the industry on a daily basis and these challenges directly impact the people in the organizations.

It is crucial if you work in the mining industry, that you have the right skills and behaviours to manage your team, implement your strategy and deal with the ever changing environment.

Let’s look at some of those key challenges and how they might impact your role and what you need to do to deal with these issues.

Technological Advances

With the rollout of automation, AI and new innovative digital tools, innovation is possible and necessary. However, companies and the industry in general can be reluctant to invest or change. These changes are crucial for the safety and productivity of the organization and for future growth. How can you use AI in your role? What is the best way to be prepared for automation?

Geopolitics, disputes and supply chains

In an unstable world, geopolitics plays more and more of a role. This can impact your supply chains and sales. You need to be prepared for whatever happens , be agile and adapt your strategy to the new reality. But this isn’t easy. How do I prepare for disruption? How could it impact my supply chain?

Environmental and green issues

Mining operations contribute to global gas emissions and with that is an increasing pressure on the industry to deal with environmental concerns. With growing protests and negative images, what can you do for your organization? How should you communicate about your strategy? How can you create dialogue with environmental partners?

Social issues and recruitment

Very often mining operations take place in remote areas this can have an impact on local communities as well as a recruitment of staff in your organization. It is key to ensure fair treatment and respect of local human rights as well as being able to manage your teams and ensure their well-being in sometimes difficult locations. What is the best way to motivate your staff? How do I get my staff involved in the way we do things? What should I do if I have new staff who are not from the industry?

Health and safety

Mining can be a dangerous industry with some of the risks ranging from hazardous materials and accidents with heavy machinery. Making sure that your people are safe is key. What is the best way to train my teams? Is my communication good?

Economic Instability

Commodity prices keep on changing and that can impact the profitability and stability of your organisation. It means financial planning can be difficult. So how can you plan for the future? What are the risks and challenges?
