It's a new era in workforce development and workforce management. The pandemic has taught many lessons that some companies will learn and some companies sadly won’t.

The first factor is that of demographics. Lightcast tells us that by 2030, the Boomers will have retired, leaving a huge gap in the numbers of working-age adults. In their report, Bridging the Gap in our Labor Force, they make the observation that, “…fifty years of birth rates below replacement levels, combined with a recent precipitous drop in immigration, has left us with fewer and fewer young, working-age people.” To me, this says if you’re waiting out the changes in the behavior of job seekers, you might have a long wait. Quite possibly longer than your business can survive. Do you have a plan? >
