The public and the private sectors must prepare workers for the future.
Recommendation
Disruptive technologies transform industries, society and the workplace. As many Americans have too much debt to invest in their futures, Deanna Mulligan and Greg Shaw urge business leaders to work with the private and public sector to help address critical skills gaps. Leaders, they say, should incorporate ongoing learning into their companies’ cultures and focus hiring efforts on workers with demonstrable skills and stackable credentials. Hire Purpose aims to inspire leaders to work together to benefit the economy by strengthening America’s workforce.
