“We have to move beyond the idea that a skills-based job description is enough—there needs to be validation, assessment, and a clear pathway for job seekers to prove their abilities.”-Jason TyszkoIn this episode of Psych Tech @ Work, I sit down with Jason Tyszko, Senior Vice President of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation, to discuss what it really takes to make skills-based hiring a reality. Jason oversees the Foundation's T3 Innovation Network, a public-private initiative aimed at creating a more equitable and inclusive job market. T-3 focuses on using digital tools to improve communication between different parts of the job market, ensuring that all learning is recognized and valued. T-3's mission to bridge gaps between employers and workers via the advancement of skills-based hiring makes Jason one of the world's foremost authorities on the subject.Our conversation is a must for anyone interested in understanding the REALITIES required for true skills-based hiring. Most conversations on the subject are more hype than substance, but not this one! Jason takes us deeper into the reality of what it will take to make skills based hiring more than just an empty buzzword.To ground our conversation in a dose of reality, Jason boils success with skills based hiring into these three pillars.* Interoperable Skills Data* To make skills-based hiring a reality, we need standardized, structured, and widely accepted skills data that flows seamlessly across education providers, employers, and workforce systems.* Without interoperability, skills data remains fragmented, making it difficult for employers to assess candidates meaningfully.* Employer Engagement and Adoption* Employers must align job descriptions, hiring processes, and internal mobility pathways around skills rather than degrees or traditional credentials.* Many organizations support skills-based hiring in theory but fail to implement it fully due to ingrained legacy practices.* Technology Infrastructure and Ecosystem Readiness* AI, job-matching platforms, and hiring tools must be built to recognize and evaluate skills accurately, rather than simply filtering candidates based on outdated proxies like job titles or degrees.* Systems should support skills validation, assessment, and transparent career pathways to ensure fair and effective hiring decisions.Jason explains how these pillars support and enable five critical but often overlooked elements that are essential to making skills-based hiring work: 1. Learning and Employment Records (LERs) & The LER Resume Standard* What it is: LERs are digital, verifiable records of a person's skills, training, certifications, and work experience. Instead of relying on traditional resumes or self-reported skills, LERs allow employers to see a structured, validated record of a candidate's capabilities.* Why it matters: Today's hiring systems don't talk to each other. Skills data is trapped in different platforms (learning management systems, certifications, HR software). LERs allow skills-based hiring to function at scale by ensuring a candidate's credentials are portable and universally recognized.* LER Resume Standard: This is a newly developed resume format built to process LERs, ensuring HR tech systems can read, compare, and use skills-based data more effectively.2. Durable Skills* What it is: Unlike technical skills (which can quickly become outdated), durable skills are long-lasting, transferable skills like critical thinking, adaptability, leadership, and collaboration.* Why it matters: Most AI-driven hiring tools over-prioritize technical skills, but durable skills are what truly drive career success. Without a way to assess and validate them, companies risk hiring for short-term needs instead of long-term potential.3. The Interoperability Layer* What it is: A technical framework that allows skills data from different platforms to connect and work together—like an API that helps job boards, HR systems, and learning platforms “speak the same language.”* Why it matters: Right now, skills-based hiring is fragmented because every company and HR tech provider uses different skills taxonomies and formats. An interoperability layer standardizes how skills data is shared, making it easier for employers to evaluate candidates based on a common skills framework.4. Employer-Led Recognition* What it is: A system where workers' skills are validated by their employers and colleagues, not just through certifications or formal education. This could involve peer endorsements, manager assessments, or internal training validations.* Why it matters: Most skills-based hiring focuses on externally validated credentials (e.g., certificates, degrees), but many people develop critical skills on the job. Without a structured way to recognize and verify these skills, businesses overlook talent that is already in their workforce.5. Skills Wallets* What it is: A digital, user-controlled repository where individuals can store, manage, and share verified records of their skills, credentials, and learning experiences.* Why it matters: Unlike traditional resumes or degree transcripts, Skills Wallets give workers full ownership of their skills data, making it portable across jobs, industries, and learning platforms. This enables lifelong learning and career mobility in ways that existing hiring systems do not support.* Skills-based hiring has the potential to transform the workforce, but it won't succeed without system-wide changes in HR technology, workforce data, and employer incentives. Jason's insights reveal the often-ignored challenges and solutions that can make this shift truly scalable and effective. If you're in talent strategy, workforce development, or HR technology, this episode provides a realistic roadmap for making skills-first hiring work.* Learn more about the T3 Innovation Network: t3networkhub.org* Contact Jason This is a public episode.

Zwei Begriffe, die heute fast schon untrennbar miteinander verbunden sind: Employer Branding und Employer Engagement. Darüber spreche ich heute mit einem Experten auf dem Gebiet HR Sandro Krug. Was kann man denn unter “Employer Branding” und “Employer Engagement'' verstehen? Wie macht man sich als Unternehmen als Arbeitgeber geradezu unwiderstehlich, sowohl für die bestehende Belegschaft wie auch für Interessenten? Wie schafft man es, im Unternehmen den permanenten Dialog aufrechtzuerhalten, um die unterschiedlichen Bedürfnisse der Mitarbeiter zu erkennen, die allein schon entstehen, weil 4 bis 5 Generationen unter einem Dach zusammenarbeiten? Damit eine echte Bindung zum Betrieb entsteht und erhalten bleibt? Das und vieles mehr klären wir im Expertengespräch. …Und zum Abschluss stelle ich meine Glaskugel Frage. Aber das erfährst du erst im Podcast.

Today in the studio, we have Olivia Herriford, whose great and exceptional work is focused on equity in technology. Olivia is the Regional Director and Employer Engagement at Bay Area Community College Consortium. Olivia's background is in technology, and with the Bay Area Community College Consortium, they support 28 community colleges in the San Francisco Bay region. She often tells people she has what one would call an “ancient” computer science degree which she earned in 1973. Olivia takes us back to what it was like to be a black woman in the mid-70s working with hardware and software engineers in the area of hardware design. Sadly, she experienced a rather hostile work environment. In today's world, Olivia believes one of the best things we can do for reaching out to younger people is instill confidence. These young people do not need to be swayed by comparing themselves to others, but rather realize we all bring something unique to the table. Everyone needs to understand their own capabilities and power.

The animated 1998 film Mulan remains one of Disney's all time greatest hits. Fans greeted Disney's announcement of a live-action reboot starring an all Asian cast with great excitement. But COVID-19 forced the film from the big screen to Disney streaming, and the film's recent debut sparked controversy both here and in China. At a time when Asian Americans are being attacked publicly — and being erroneously blamed for the coronavirus — 2020 has been fertile ground for significant growth in Asian themed feature films and TV programs, with independent films helmed by Asian directors and Asian actors in lead roles. What is the power of this expansion of representation? And does it especially matter in this moment? Guests: Elena Creef, professor of Women's and Gender Studies at Wellesley College. She specializes in Asian American visual history in photography, film and popular culture. Jenny Korn, fellow and the founding coordinator of the Race and Media Working Group at the Berkman Klein Center for Internet and Society at Harvard University. Later in the show: The Pew Research Center documented the sharp increase in out-of-work Americans from 6.2 million unemployed in February to 20.5 million in May. For those looking to find new work, what's the best way to navigate a job search during a pandemic? Meanwhile, the class of 2020 has produced two million new college grads with bachelor's degrees entering one of the worst job markets in decades. And for those currently employed — and working remotely from home — how can we succeed in this out of office workspace with new Zoom office etiquette? Guests: Karen Cardozo is an assistant vice president of Northeastern University's Employer Engagement and Career Design. Brie Reynolds is a career development manager and career coach at FlexJobs, a site for telecommuting and flexible job listings.

Engaging People, Powering Companies - The Engagement Coach Leadership Podcast
Did you know that we all have a natural 24 hour rhythm that dictates when we should sleep, when we should eat and when we are at our most alert? This changes with age and therefore has natural implications to work, where we are fixed to rigid working times. This concept of chronobiology has brought many insights organisations can learn from to improve engagement and productivity at work and Dr Kat (Dr Katharina Lederle) joins us as a guest to help us understand the topic in greater detail.Dr Kat, a sleep and body clock specialist, is passionate about helping people sleep well and thrive. She sees taking care of your sleep and circadian health as an act of self-care.Dr Kat provides one-to-one sleep therapy to those experiencing insomnia and works with organisations helping them realise the goodness of sleep. She runs sleep hacks and educational talks and workshops. These use a variety of methods, to help workforce teams get to understand more about their own sleep behaviour and then design personal sleep plans that help them make behavioural changes and sleep well.In her work she combines a deep understanding of the biology of sleep and the body clock (she holds a PhD in Human Circadian Physiology & Behaviour and a MSc in Biosciences), with her practical experience in managing fatigue and insomnia, and learnings from Mindfulness, Acceptance Commitment Therapy and Compassion Focused Therapy.Dr Kat has written a practical guide to getting good sleep called ‘Sleep Sense' and has appeared in media coverage of sleep and circadian rhythms.

Opportunity in America - Events by the Aspen Institute Economic Opportunities Program
Lack of access to quality jobs is a key contributor to widespread economic insecurity and the inability to pursue economic mobility. Race, gender, and place all play a critical role in who has access to quality work and economic mobility. Workforce development has long recognized the importance of a quality job to a person's life and has well-developed tools and strategies for preparing people to succeed in quality jobs. But what role can workforce leaders play on the demand side of the labor market equation to improve the odds that a quality job will be there for a qualified worker? This conversation explores how workforce development leaders can encourage improved job quality in their communities. In this conversation we hear from innovators from different types of organizations and engaged in very different local labor markets. We consider the role workforce organizations play with respect to influencing public systems, incentivizing changed business practice, empowering worker constituencies, and leveraging their own organizational practices. Our session emphasizes tools, tips, and lessons learned – and tackles questions from you! This webinar is the third in our Job Quality in Practice series. The panel includes Mandy Townsend (Vice President of Employer Engagement, JVS Boston; Job Quality Fellow, The Aspen Institute), Janice Urbanik (Senior Director for Innovation and Strategy, National Fund for Workforce Solutions), Brooke Valle (Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer, San Diego Workforce Partnership), Caryn York (Chief Executive Officer, Job Opportunities Task Force; Aspen Institute Job Quality Fellow), and moderator Maureen Conway (Vice President for Policy Programs, The Aspen Institute; Executive Director, Economic Opportunities Program). The Job Quality in Practice series is designed to support practitioners across fields – including workforce development, economic development, capital deployment, policy, worker advocacy, and business – to address job quality in their work. Webinars share actionable tools and approaches, highlight leading practitioners' work, and create connections across disciplines. We are grateful to Prudential Financial for its support of our Job Quality in Practice webinar series and our ongoing efforts to advance a job quality field of practice. The Economic Opportunities Program advances strategies, policies, and ideas to help low- and moderate-income people thrive in a changing economy. We recognize that race, gender, and place intersect with and intensify the challenge of economic inequality and we address these dynamics by advancing an inclusive vision of economic justice. For over 25 years, EOP has focused on expanding individuals' opportunities to connect to quality work, start businesses, and build economic stability that provides the freedom to pursue opportunity.

Following the arrival of large numbers of migrants and asylum seekers in Europe from 2015 onwards, many non-traditional actors—from tech start-ups to social enterprises—have pioneered innovative solutions to foster the social and economic inclusion of newcomers.

This two-day conference reflected on how innovative initiatives for refugee inclusion can grow beyond pockets of good practice and inspire large-scale, long-term change. The event brought together a diverse group of public officials, business leaders, service designers, social entrepreneurs, civil society organisations, and refugee initiatives from Europe, the United States, and Canada.
