Essential to my job
02/13/2021
As a community college president, I am keenly interested in the future of work and the role community colleges play in preparing the workforce. This podcast is an essential tool for me in leading my college to meet workforce needs of today and tommorow.
Well produced corporate speak
04/25/2024
I listened to the first 30 minutes of 4 or 5 episodes. They had IBM/HR, Cleveland clinic, Deloitte, workforce transitions and one other. Polite, well spoken corporate blather. It's the problem you get when you get the top person to speak; they can't say much of anything. Older marcomm people love the well packaged CEO, but podcasting is different. Deloitte's leader got great questions on remote work, specialists vs generalists, etc. In all cases, his answer was some version of "it depends on the need and situation"; that was about all. Absolutely true, but screamingly obvious. Actually every episode was high level corporate positions; same as you'd get from chatgpt if you asked for half a dozen paragraphs on something. I realize my review is out of sync with others. Either my tastes are different or people under these very powerful guests are concouraged to contribute.

Thought Provoking
01/07/2019
Interesting conversations from thought leaders across industry about how tech trends and other forces will shape the future economy and how we work within it. An informed take that digs deeper than just “what jobs will be automated in the future.”
Interesting and informative!
10/23/2018
This podcast is an interesting and informative way of getting insight into how business leaders are thinking about issues like changing workforce requirements and technology’s implications. The way this podcast gets behind the scenes about how leaders develop their thinking is valuable. Additionally getting perspective from non-business leaders is an interesting counterpoint to the business perspectives.
Fantastic range & depth!
10/09/2018
Many people who think about the future of work tend to focus on one or two topics (e.g., automation, globalization) and only address the superficial elements at stake. Professors Kerr and Fuller take the opposite approach in this podcast. They cover a range of topics that might get left out of typical conversations about the future of work (e.g., workforce reskilling, degree inflation), and dive in-depth to give insights that are both fascinating and practical for business leaders. Anybody who is anxious about what the next few years, decades, or even centuries have in store for their organization would be well served to have a listen.
