The Buttonwood Gathering 2015 February 10th / New York, NY Long-term demographic, geopolitical, business and educational trends are shifting workforce compositions. For many, gone are the days of a forty-year career climbing the same corporate ladder to gain a pension and comfortable retirement at 65. Job-hopping and free agency are the new normal for millenials, in part, by choice but also as a reflection of recent unemployment levels and uncertain job markets. How do companies prepare for this new paradigm? What do changes in technology and human resource priorities mean for tomorrow’s workforce. What is the impact of minimum wage and immigration policies on hiring, employment and growth? What do education and employment regulation need to look like to secure a prosperous workforce and healthy economy for tomorrow?
