Dear reader, The UAE has witnessed an influx of young, tech-savvy talent into its growing workforce – which could threaten mid-career managers in many sectors. Senior professionals are trying to stay ahead by learning to use new technologies and networking with younger colleagues. Change is inevitable and middle management should view it as an opportunity rather than a threat, recruiters say. AI tools are already cutting costs and saving time, and it's worth looking closely at those that will transform professional workplaces. Many recruiters say mid-career managers must move beyond people management and bring expertise in data-driven decision-making and digital transformation. Those who evolve will remain indispensable in the new workforce of the future. Have a great day! As middle management roles become more streamlined, seasoned employees are seeing their positions get restructured to adapt to a new wave of younger talent, amid the ongoing technology disruption. Young recruits often bring fresh ideas and can commit themselves more to the company, putting pressure on older employees who have been with the organisation for years, experts say. “People who've been in companies for about 10 to 15 years and are currently in mid to senior-level positions are being threatened or feeling uncomfortable with new creative ideas that young employees bring,” says Jaanvi Bhatia, who works in the UAE’s HR consulting industry. “This creates a lot of power struggles in companies and older employees are influenced by the younger cohort.” <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/business/money/2025/03/18/uae-jobs-talent-salaries/" target="_blank">Read the full story by Deepthi Nair …</a> My Abu Dhabi Salary: <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/business/money/2025/03/11/abu-dhabi-uae-salaries-jobs/" target="_blank">‘I save and invest half of my Dh16,000 monthly pay</a> from the oil industry’ ‘Should I invest with a <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/business/money/2025/03/10/should-i-invest-with-a-company-offering-me-3-returns-per-month-for-three-years/" target="_blank">company offering me 3% returns per month</a> for three years?’ As <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/business/money/2025/03/05/trump-us-stocks/" target="_blank">Donald Trump puts America first</a>, the rest of the world fights back
