Podcasts about future worker a vision

This week on Breaking Battlegrounds, Sean Noble of Light Beer Dark Money and Kiley Kipper of Kiley's Corner are joined by two influential voices in their fields. Mackenzie Price, education innovator and founder of Alpha Schools, shares how her revolutionary two-hour school model leverages AI to deliver personalized, mastery-based learning while giving students back time to build life skills, explore creativity, and pursue purpose. Then, economist and American Compass founder Oren Cass joins to unpack Trump's tariffs, how China's authoritarian economic practices undermine true free market trade, and why rebuilding America's manufacturing base is essential to our future prosperity and national security. And in Kiley's Corner, Kiley shares the heartbreaking story of Eli Heacock, a 16-year-old who took his life after being targeted by an online predator using AI-generated sextortion, an urgent reminder of the dangers facing teens online in the digital age.

Students score in the top 1-2% nationally, and over 90% said they love going to school. This success led to the expansion of Alpha Schools across multiple cities – Miami, Brownsville, and counting. Her model is also used at Alpha High, Sports Academy, NextGen Academy, and GT School, changing the educational landscape for hundreds of students.MacKenzie also hosts the Future of Education podcast and YouTube channel, discussing AI's role in education and how students can align their passions with their skills for personal and academic growth, amongst other topics. As a member of the Forbes Technology Council, she continues to drive discussions on innovative education.MacKenzie lives in Austin, Texas with her family and aims to make 2 Hour Learning a global phenomenon.

Yascha Mounk and Oren Cass discuss the reasoning behind Trump's economic policy. Oren Cass is the founder and executive director of American Compass and author of The Once and Future Worker: A Vision for the Renewal of Work in America. In this week's conversation, Yascha Mounk and Oren Cass discuss the decline of manufacturing in the U.S., whether there is any coherence to Trump's economic policy, and if the Democrats or Republicans are the more natural home for working class voters.  This transcript has been condensed and lightly edited for clarity.

As election data analysis continues to pour in, we can be sure of one thing: a large number of working class votes which traditionally would have gone to the Democrats shifted in 2024 toward the GOP. As CNN reported last week: “Trump ran up large margins among White voters without a college degree who belong to labor unions and also significantly improved among unionized non-White workers without advanced education.”So, did Trump's victory signal a realignment for the working class? Or was it a one-off thing, an act of rebellion against a complacent Democratic establishment? In terms of first principles, what is an economy that makes sense for workers, and for all Americans? What are Americans owed? And do we have obligations toward undocumented immigrants? For this special live recording of the podcast, we invited Oren Cass from the conservative pro-labor think tank, the American Compass, to help us answer these questions. Samuel Kimbriel kicked things off with a question about the “American dream,” which Oren contrasts with what he calls “the American promise.” The dream is about upward mobility, and the promise is about economic stability. The problem in America today, Oren says, “is not that you can't rise to the top, but you don't have this basic stability to work from.”Christine Emba challenged Oren on immigration. On what grounds should the rights of American workers take precedence over the rights of workers in general? Why should we restrict immigration to people who want to join the American project? The conversation touched up the first principle question of “Who qualifies as a member of the political community?”, as Oren put it.

With J.D. Vance as Trump's running mate, the economic populism that's ascendent in the Republican Party is in the spotlight. To understand this set of policy concerns, there is no better person to speak to than my guest on today's program, who has been influential in driving this agenda — and in challenging the economic orthodoxy on the right.Oren Cass is the founder and chief economist of American Compass, and the author of The Once and Future Worker: A Vision for the Renewal of Work in America.You can find Tara Henley on Twitter at @TaraRHenley, and on Substack at tarahenley.substack.com

Trump's pick of J.D. Vance as his running mate is seen by many as the culmination of a years-long realignment of Republican and conservative politics—away from trickle-down economics toward a more populist, worker-oriented direction. While the pick ushered in a flood of reactions and think pieces, it's unclear at this stage what Vance's impact would truly be in a Trump second term. Will Vance be able to overcome some of Trump's more establishment-friendly positions on taxes and regulation? Will he advocate that Trump continue some of Biden's policies on tech policy, particularly the administration's actions against companies like Google, Amazon, and Apple? How might Vance influence policies on high-tech manufacturing, defense technology, and artificial intelligence? Evan is joined by Oren Cass, Chief Economist and Founder of American Compass and the author of The Once and Future Worker: A Vision for the Renewal of Work in America.

America has been a notably hard-working society for most of its history—but has become much less so in recent decades. Labor-force participation, especially among men of prime working age, has fallen to levels not seen since the Great Depression and is particularly low in certain regions of the Middle West and South. The decline of work has coincided with declining health status and longevity and high levels of drug addiction.Policy analysts and political leaders have offered widely differing explanations for these discouraging trends, from trade policies and globalization to welfare policies, cultural upheavals, and regulatory suppression of economic opportunities. Their ideas for reversing course have important implications not only for national social and economic welfare, but also for partisan politics, as working-class Americans have been shifting significantly from their traditional home in the Democratic Party to the Republican Party.Join us to learn more about this critical topic as Heritage's Christopher DeMuth moderates a conversation with Oren Cass (author of The Once and Future Worker: A Vision for the Renewal of Work in America), Nicholas Eberstadt (author of Men Without Work), Iain Murray (author of The Socialist Temptation), and former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum (author of Blue Collar Conservatives: Recommitting to an America That Works).

What is America's economic diagnosis? Is capitalism out? What is the common good? Oren shares his insights on Trump, growing polarization, the middle class, inflation, economic inequality, AI, and what can be done about it all. You can find Givers, Doers, & Thinkers here at Philanthropy Daily, and at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Buzzsprout, and wherever you listen to podcasts.We'd love to hear your thoughts, ideas, questions, and recommendations for the podcast!

These days "conservative economics" can mean anything from strict libertarianism to formless Trumpism. But what were the foundations of American conservatism? According to Oren Cass, the executive director of a think tank called American Compass, the answer is simple: family, community, and industry. He shares his mission to reclaim American conservatism and joins Nick and Goldy in a search for some common ground. This episode was originally released in December 2020. Oren Cass is the executive director of American Compass, whose mission is to restore an economic orthodoxy that emphasizes the importance of faith, community, and industry to the nation's liberty and prosperity. He is the author of ‘The Once and Future Worker: A Vision for the Renewal of Work in America'.

The basic premise of capitalism has always been that more people generating more profits will be better for everybody. Oren Cass wants to challenge that premise by prioritizing values over value and over market power. Oren was formerly an Economic Advisor to the Mitt Romney Presidential Campaign, now executive director of the nonprofit American Compass and author of The Once and Future Worker: A Vision for the Renewal of Work in America (2018). A successful economy, according to him, should not be measured by consumption but by opportunities for all to be productive with a wide range of aptitudes and interests. Luigi, Bethany, and Oren discuss what this means for replacing jobs with AI, China's economic relationship with the US, the idea of "Big Labor", and the interplay of neoliberalism with capitalism.

While the conversation around a universal basic income - a government program which provides every adult with regular cash payments - has gained traction in recent years, the COVID-19 pandemic turned the fringe experimental program into a reality for millions of people around the globe. Facing skyrocketing unemployment and an impending economic crisis, some governments decided to act swiftly and without conditions: they transferred cash directly into the hands of all their citizens - regardless of age, income, or geography. Proponents of UBI see the pandemic era handouts as proof that the program works. COVID-19 exacerbated income inequality and sped up technological innovation which disproportionately hurt lower wage earners and marginalized communities. Direct cash payments offered financial security to society's most vulnerable and helped transform the broken relationship between individuals and the labour market. It bought precious time and resources for those seeking new economic opportunities in a rapidly-changing workforce. Critics worry that UBI disincentivizes work and rewards indolence. They point to pandemic recovery rehiring difficulties as proof that getting cash handouts without strings attached encourages people to stay out of the workforce all together. Re-positioning government into the role of economic provider threatens individual aspiration for self-reliance and betterment. Furthermore, the already well-off do not need to benefit from cash handouts. If the government wants to address racial and economic injustices it would have much more success by enriching already existing social welfare programs that target those most in need. Arguing for the motion is Scott Santens, Senior Advisor to Humanity Forward and Editor of Basic Income Today. Arguing against the motion is Oren Cass, executive director of American Compass and author of The Once and Future Worker: A Vision for the Renewal of Work in America. QUOTES: SCOTT SANTENS “Basic income is an acknowledgement that everyone has basic needs, and we should make sure that those absolute most basic needs are being met at all times.” OREN CASS “It has always been an American tradition to value reciprocity, and a universal basic income runs directly against that.” Sources: ABC News, Global, Yang Speaks, CNBC, Newzroom Afrika The host of the Munk Debates is Rudyard Griffiths - @rudyardg.   Tweet your comments about this episode to @munkdebate or comment on our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/munkdebates/ To sign up for a weekly email reminder for this podcast, send an email to podcast@munkdebates.com.

The economy has fundamentally changed, and workers have been left behind. To get into why and how, and what we can do about it, I’ve invited Sara Horowitz. Sara is the founder and executive director of the Freelancers Union and author of the new book Mutualism: Building the Next Economy from the Ground Up. After listening, learn more at Sara's website www.build-mutualism.net. Praise For Mutualism: Building The Next Economy From The Ground Up… “Horowitz gives us the model to build our next progressive institutions. Her vision provides a path forward to build the next safety net that will meet the needs of all workers in the next economy—an economy that is already here!”—Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers “Horowitz, who had the brilliant idea of founding a union for freelancers, explains in this thoughtful book how in an age of huge economic turbulence, mutualism will play a major role in building a fairer nation for every American worker.”—Steven Greenhouse, author of Beaten Down, Worked Up: The Past, Present, and Future of American Labor “In describing a mutualist sector, Horowitz draws on the collective economic development strategies used by cooperative, union, mutual, and faith-based movements. I’m particularly pleased that she includes the critical bridging roles A. Philip Randolph and Bayard Rustin played in connecting these movements during the civil rights era. This book provides wonderful insights for what to do now.”—Jessica Gordon-Nembhard, PhD, economist, John Jay College, CUNY “Horowitz offers readers an entirely new way to think about our needs as workers and citizens and about the institutions we might build to meet those needs. Here is the guidebook to a language and tradition that America must rediscover in order to thrive in the twenty-first century.”—Oren Cass, director of American Compass and author of The Once and Future Worker: A Vision for the Renewal of Work in America “In this powerful, deeply encouraging book, Sara Horowitz argues that while neither markets nor governments have been able to reduce inequality or increase inclusion, we have a third option: mutualism—or the creation of organizations that combine commitment to the public good with the ability to sustain themselves economically.”—Rebecca Henderson, economist, Harvard University --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/alyssa-milano-sorry-not-sorry/message

On Sunday night the Democrats torpedoed a bipartisan emergency bill that would have increased unemployment benefits, provided payroll and rent for small businesses, and financial assistance for millions of American households. Oren Cass joins us to discuss these and other stimulus measures which would bring desperately needed economic relief to Americans in the age of COVID-19. We also have a wide-ranging conversation about everything from the real cost of climate change to whether or not the gig economy is undermining American industries, and much more.

Pedro Lomba é advogado e professor universitário. A actividade política do Pedro está ligada ao PSD e foi Secretário de Estado do governo de Passos Coelho. Mas foi bem antes disso que o Pedro começou por dar que falar, quando, ainda nos primórdios da blogosfera, em 2003, integrou um dos blogues mais marcantes, conjuntamente com Pedro Mexia e João Pereira Coutinho, onde uma direita mais jovem começava a mostrar-se.  -> Apoie este projecto e faça parte da comunidade de mecenas do 45 Graus em: 45graus.parafuso.net/apoiar Este é o 1º episódio de uma nova edição da série ‘Orientações Políticas’ que fiz na temporada passada. Gravámos esta conversa ainda durante a campanha das legislativas mas como, sendo sobre política, não nos focámos nas eleições, decidi deixar passar o período eleitoral e publicá-lo só agora. Nesta 2ª edição da série ‘Orientações Políticas’ a minha ideia é a mesma dos episódios que publiquei anteriormente - conversar com pessoas com posicionamento político conhecido - mas desta vez vou tentar encontrar pessoas que actualmente estejam fora da política activa (como é o caso do Pedro). Da minha parte, enquanto anfitrião, a abordagem é a mesma da série anterior: por um lado, tento debater com o convidado as suas ideias e confrontá-las com a minha própria visão crítica; por outro lado, tento estar de mente aberta e aprender com os insights que o convidado traz (como faço nos episódios ‘normais’ do podcast). Isto é importante até porque, embora eu tente sempre ir atrás dos factos, quando falamos em política, a realidade é demasiado complexa para conseguirmos se 100% objectivos. Para além disso, os nossos valores variam entre indivíduos diferentes e influenciam sempre a nossa visão das coisas. Esta nossa conversa foi muito aberta. Fomos saltando de tema em tema sem um guião pré-definido. E, aliás, ao reouvi-la, percebi que foi mais o convidado quem definiu o rumo da conversa do que eu, o que nestas conversas é o ideal. O facto de ter sido um diálogo aberto implica, por outro lado, que houve temas que ficaram por concluir e, pelo menos da minha parte, reflexões que são mais um princípio de opinião do que uma opinião definitiva. Mas julgo que esse é o maior valor deste exercício: dar a quem ouve um acesso (quase) em bruto a uma conversa franca entre duas pessoas. Durante esta hora e pouco, cobrimos uma série de assuntos. Comecei por tentar perceber a origem do pensamento político do convidado e daí partimos para discutir outros temas, vários dos quais dão hoje muito que falar: (i) os limites à integração europeia numa Europa de Estados-nação com culturas específicas, (ii) as ameaças à liberdade de expressão nestes tempos em que o espaço público passou a abarcar as redes sociais, (iii9 e aquilo que o convidado vê como o problema do ressurgimento de novas ideologias em sítios como as Universidades. Mais para o final da conversa, discutimos também a crítica do convidado a uma sociedade por vezes demasiado focada nos direitos, um tema que em si mesmo dava uma conversa.

The Once and Future Worker: A Vision for the Renewal of Work in America by Oren Cass Written and narrated by Leigh Martinuzzi Oren Cass is a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute for Policy Research. In this book, Cass tackles the tough challenge global economies are facing with regards to the future of productivity, growth, human interest and well-being. As wages have become stagnant for over a generation and although we are told employment has increased the labour market is more heavily made up of casual and part-time workers who face an increasing level of uncertainty, job-insecurity and dissatisfaction. According to Cass this is causing an increasing reliance of welfare programs as life expectancy falls, drug abuse and obesity increases and families who provide the backbone and stability to well-functioning communicates and society as a whole are falling apart. An important reason for Cass’s work. What is the state of the future worker? Please enjoy this week's book reflection.

There needs to be a new attitude about how we train our future workforce in America and that may or may not require a college education. That's part of the theme laid out by Oren Cass in his new book, "The Once and Future Worker: A Vision for the Renewal of Work in America".

Oren Cass joins City Journal editor Brian Anderson to discuss his new book, The Once and Future Worker: A Vision for the Renewal of Work in America. The American worker is in crisis. Wages have stagnated for more than a generation, and reliance on welfare programs has surged. Life expectancy is falling as substance abuse and obesity rates climb. Work and its future has become a central topic for City Journal: in 2017, the magazine published its special issue, The Shape of Work to Come. Cass's book is a groundbreaking reevaluation of American social and economic policy. The renewal of work in America will require fresh solutions; Yuval Levin of National Affairs calls The Once and Future Worker "the essential policy book of our time."
