The Vanishing Workforce

A seminar presentation by Patrick Dolan

Where have all the workers gone? The Covid-19 pandemic has exerted a profound effect on the dynamics of the employment market in the United States. Companies are facing new, extraordinary challenges in locating, recruiting, hiring, and retaining a workforce to grow their businesses. Terms like, “The Great Resignation”, “The Great Reshuffling”, “Quiet Quitting” and “The Vanishing Workforce” have become common parlance in the employment economy discussion.

But in reality, economic, demographic and social trends have been generating burdens on the employment market for decades, pressures only exacerbated by the pandemic. So, what are they and what can you do?

In this unique seminar, we’ll uncover these trends and discuss strategies to align with the changes and challenges in the marketplace, and answer such questions as:

• Is this temporary or has this become the new normal?
• Has power within the workforce shifted?
• What changes and challenges can you control?
• What are near-term and long-term strategies for attracting workers, and keeping them?

Registrations are required and open until Wednesday, October 19th, 2022.
