Only four percent of East African CEOs are willing to train their staff to match required digital capabilities at the workplace, a new study has shown, ranking them way below the 44 percent of global CEOs who are ready to impart the skills to their employees.

The findings are contained in the 2019 East Africa CEO outlook report released Thursday by audit and advisory firm KPMG. They show that the region’s top executives are lagging behind in the race to equip employees with skills such as data visualisation.
