3/21 is International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. Our government officials show commitment to this daily & we reflect back to when Rep @DarshunKendrick & Mayor @andreforatlanta honored a few of us for dedication to diversity & equity at the Tech for All Conf
We have you covered with #upskilling and #reskilling to start a new career. Check out our upcoming #technology and #productmanagement #projectmanagement #training classes. Let's chat about how you (or your team) may be able to take the class for free.
We’re pleased to have our CEO, @ValWMack, join esteemed panelists to discuss Conscious Capitalism at #SOAHR2022, SHRM-Atlanta’s Annual HR Conference in Atlanta, July 26-27. Learn more and register now at soahr.net
NEW HIRES during the pandemic: 71% finished onboarding unsure of who they should “build relationships with” 62% didn’t have a “clear idea of the organization’s culture” 52% didn’t have a clear idea of “how to be productive in their role” #onboarding eaglehillconsulting.com/insights/onboa…
Age remains a barrier to upskilling finds research. According to research, 43% of workers avoid taking a course because they believe they are too old to learn something new. personneltoday.com/hr/age-remains…
Employers are de-emphasizing degrees in response to a tight job market, but 37% of middle-skill job descriptions showed no reduction in degree requirements, meaning that some 15.7 million people have been effectively walled out of the candidate pool. hbr.org/2022/02/skills…
“Hiring platforms routinely screen out experienced candidates simply because they aren't college graduates. With millions of openings going unfilled companies should look for skills instead of degrees.” hbswk.hbs.edu/item/college-d…?
Job openings are at record high levels, and competition is fierce among companies struggling to find qualified workers. Employers need new ways to find people, and the easiest way to fill a job is to keep the person who’s in it. #Upskilling & #Reskilling hbswk.hbs.edu/item/desperate…?
“There’s a gap between the frontier of innovation and the skills necessary to use those innovations. That in itself is not new. But what is new is the scope of that innovation, how widespread it is, and how it has diffused in every aspect of life. raconteur.net/sponsored/work…
Are your current workers in roles that are slowly becoming obsolete due to automation. Do you have unproductive middle managers, are your digitally unskilled frontline workers prepared for the changing world ahead? hbr.org/2022/04/6-stra…
“Moving to technologies that are inclusive for all learners and making learning available in a self-paced model, whether they are in the office or working remotely, is very important for ensuring the experience is equal and impactful.” buff.ly/3kAKCK8
Research shows that almost three in five adults are willing to learn new skills if requested by their current or a potential employer while (42%) are interested in receiving additional job or skill training of any kind if it were available for free. aarp.org/research/topic…
“Many experts believe upskilling is urgent – but most people don’t know where to start. Fortunately, there are many ways to hone your skills.” bbc.com/worklife/artic…
Workforce upskilling is being supplemented by edtech solutions. Half of all employees globally will need reskilling by 2025 and that number does not include all the people who are currently not in employment, according to the World Economic Forum and PwC edsurge.com/news/2022-04-1…
“Corporate learning and development have become a must-have in the workspace. Employee upskilling is being used as a tool to make staff feel valued, increase productivity, aid talent upgrades, and support career growth. moneycontrol.com/news/business/…
Talent is looking for organizations that align with their values. Companies must clearly articulate their values and help candidates see that their organization is a fit for their values. This is a huge shift for companies to attract and retain talent. time.com/6165690/future…
“The emphasis should be on building their own supply chain, becoming creators - not simply consumers - of talent. And a focus on upskilling and reskilling opportunities will be key. ” fintechmagazine.com/articles/the-g…
A survey by BT has revealed that, given the opportunity, 69% of people would reskill and work in a different specialism, with technology (18%), health (17%) and finance (10%) topping the list of sectors that people wished they could switch to. intelligentcio.com/eu/2022/04/06/…
Overcoming a talent shortage requires companies going all-in on their employees. To develop and grow the talent pool involves planning, upskilling and reskilling, downstream investment, and an emphasis on DEI as well as rethinking company culture. enterprisetalk.com/featured/three…
“Closing young professionals’ education-to-employment skills gap is crucial to the future of work, and how we go about surviving The Great Resignation” houston.innovationmap.com/allie-danziger…

John and I have failed retirement. We believe in re-wirement! John was sworn in today as the chief deputy in the Henry County Sheriff office. Sheriff Reginald Scandrett issued the oath. He is the first Black Sheriff in the county.
I wish I could tell y’all what I said to him in this conversation. Some stuff you got to keep among family. @SnoopDogg laughed and told me, “Girl I love you. You sound just like my Aunties down south.” @BlackVotersMtr
During these unprecedented times, we’ve had to pivot our in-person events to online events. We took some guidance from this @salesforce article to help us begin planning the two Virtual BBQs we hosted last month! Read here: bit.ly/2CzXrl5
