In recent years, organizations have started to experiment with skills-based hiring by dropping degree requirements and other credentials in job postings to unlock new talent populations. However, a fully-realized skills-based hiring approach demands deep change in talent processes and hiring manager practices. To this point, most organizations have been unable to weave this method into the fabric of their talent strategy. Joseph Fuller, professor at Harvard Business School, rejoins the Talent Angle to discuss his latest research: “Skills-Based Hiring: The Long Road from Pronouncements to Practice.” Joseph shares data to show the extent to which skills-based hiring commitments have translated to meaningful action, and offers practical guidance to help organizations broaden the aperture of their talent pools.

Many people blame the shortage of low-wage workers on the enduring impact of the pandemic. But management professor Joseph Fuller and senior researcher Manjari Raman of Harvard Business School say that the real reason has been long in the making. Their studies show that companies view low-wage workers as people who will be in the job only for a short time. Instead, the researchers find that these employees are loyal and want development and a clear path to career advancement. The researchers share practical suggestions for how leaders and managers can do better in hiring, development, and mentoring. Fuller and Raman wrote the HBR article “The High Cost of Neglecting Low-Wage Workers.” Key episode topics include: career development, talent management, hiring, recruitment, promotions, leadership HBR On Leadership curates the best conversations and case studies with the world's top business and management experts, to help you unlock the best in those around you.

A lot, as it turns out, from helping refine their skills to bringing a sense of purpose, of satisfaction, and a sense of empowerment as change agents in their communities, according to research from Ares Management. Ares unveiled its key findings last fall in a white paper, Philanthropy, Purpose and Professional Development: Why Workplace Volunteer Programs Matter, and discussed them on a special LinkedIn Live event presented by Ares and WorkingNation, which you can listen to here. Joining me in this conversation are: Michelle Armstrong, head of philanthropy at Ares Management, elaborating on the research's findings about workplace volunteerism and why Ares employees are so passionate about giving back to their communities.

In HRchat episode 702, we consider colleagues who double up as caregivers and ways we can support them.Joseph Fuller's research suggested that 73% of employees are currently juggling caregiving responsibilities in some capacity. However, due to a lack of tracking by employers, the necessary support infrastructure for caregivers is often not available. The result? Each family is left to build its caregiving support system from scratch. This inefficiency and sense of isolation result in massive losses of around $35 billion annually for U.S. businesses due to the failure to adequately support and retain these vital workers! Bill Banham's guest this time is Lisa Leighton, Vice President of Strategic Development at CariloopLisa leads new business acquisition and growth strategy, working with employers and partners to extend Cariloop's reach to more employees and their families.

In this episode of Work in Progress, I'm joined by Joseph Fuller, professor at Harvard Business School and co-head of the school's Managing the Future of Work Project, and Rajiv Chandrasekaran, head of strategy at the Schultz Family Foundation. Everybody benefits from an upwardly mobile workforce, So, how is corporate America doing when it comes to creating a culture of advancement for workers within their businesses, particularly those without a four-year college degree? That's the question at the heart of the American Opportunity Index (AOI), a dynamic analysis of the nation's top 250 biggest companies – and their investment in their employees and their careers – from Harvard Business School, Burning Glass Institute, and the Schultz Family Foundation. “American businesses are struggling to hire, grow and retain the workers they need to remain competitive. They lack visibility on how their workers advance and how their policies affect their employees' prospects. They are missing critical components of the big picture,” says Fuller, one of the authors of the report. He adds, “The Index assesses how effectively large corporations manage their human talent, identifies which companies are leading the way, and provides a framework for benchmarking progress." The Index focuses on worker outcomes and is based on the real-world experience of more than three million of their employees. AOI measures which companies are most likely to create opportunity for workers in roles open to non-college graduates across three criteria: access (who is able to join the company), wages (how well they are paid), and mobility (how far a worker will advance – either at that company or once they leave for another company). "Our objective is to get companies to ask 'Have we implemented policies that advance our workers prospects of growing with us? (Are we) creating an environment that creates opportunities for growth in all dimensions, growth in skills, growth in income potential, growth in promotability for their workforce? Are we tracking those metrics because you are what you track, you are what you measure? And are we pursuing best practice in light of what we can see other people are achieving?" adds Fuller. According to Chandrasekaran, the fundamental goal to give both employers and workers greater transparency into how workers can get ahead and how companies can most effectively use their human capital. "We believe that when workers can advance, when they can find upward mobility, they can achieve the pathways to continue to grow their careers, everybody benefits. It's not just the workers, but companies themselves. Turnover is reduced. Companies become more efficient. They can fill their talent needs more effectively from within," he adds. Chandrasekaran explains what the Index to "empower workers to make better decisions as to what positions to seek and what firms to prioritize in their job searches; recognize companies that are setting an example of how to create opportunity; and arm corporate executives and HR leaders alike with data they need to take meaningful action within their companies to boost the competitiveness of their workforce." The original American Opportunity Index was published last fall, identifying the 50 best firms across five different models of opportunity creation: the Best Workplaces to Advance Within, the Best Workplaces to Start From, the Best Workplaces to Stay and Thrive at One Company, the Best Workplaces to Advance Without a College Degree, and the Best Workplaces That Grow Their Own Talent. The highest-ranked companies overall include: AT&T, American Express, Cisco, PG&E, Microsoft, Fiserv, HF Sinclair, Liberty Mutual Insurance, International Paper, and Southwest Airlines. The 2023 American Opportunity Index will be released later this fall and Chandrasekaran says it will cover even more of the Fortune 500 and expand into several new categories of assessm...

said. One of two male pedestrians walking south on the shoulder of Cobb Parkway near Polytechnic Lane was struck by a car around 2:33 a.m. Friday, according to Marietta police spokesman Chuck McPhilamy. The man died from his injuries. The man who was killed has not been identified but was described by McPhilamy as a 36-year-old “transient known to stay in or near Marietta.” The car, a 2008 Ford Taurus X, was driven by an 81-year-old man from Lawrenceville, McPhilamy said. The driver did not stop and left the scene of the collision without calling 911 or rendering aid. His vehicle was found by the Emerson Police Department, stopped in a northbound lane on Highway 41 in Bartow County, shortly after the crash occurred. According to McPhilamy, the driver was not injured in the crash but displayed signs of confusion and was taken to Wellstar Kennestone Hospital for evaluation. The investigation is ongoing and no charges have been filed at this time. Anyone with information regarding this crash is urged to contact police. Commissioner Keli Gambrill was sworn in Friday for her second term as west Cobb's representative on the Board of Commissioners.

First elected in 2018, Keli Gambrill was unopposed in both the primary and general elections this year. The Michigan native spent years as a community activist with People Looking After Neighborhoods before running for office. Gambrill's swearing in, attended by fellow commissioners, county staff and supporters, was speedy as they come, clocking in at 11 minutes on the dot. In brief remarks, the commissioner thanked attendees for their support over the years. Though she ran unopposed, Gambrill joked that during the Lost Mountain cityhood movement, “cityhood got me in touch with more of my constituents than probably campaigning did, because everybody wanted to have the conversation.” During her second term, she said she looks forward to working on Cobb's unified development code, a code reform project that's about to get rolling in earnest.

Dansby Swanson, the last of the big four free agent shortstops to reach terms this offseason, appears to be leaving his hometown team for the Windy City. According to multiple reports, the Kennesaw native and Marietta High School graduate has agreed to a $177 million, seven-year deal with the Chicago Cubs — netting him an average of $25.3 million per year. After six-plus seasons with the Atlanta Braves, Swanson is reaping the benefits of a breakout season and a fruitful market for free agent shortstops. Before Swanson, Trea Turner, Xander Bogaerts and Carlos Correa had previously agreed to contracts of more than 10 years, with total values well beyond $200 million apiece. The 28-year-old Swanson is coming off a season in which he batted .277 with 32 doubles, 25 home runs and 96 RBIs, playing all 162 games. He also was a first-time All-Star and Gold Glove winner at shortstop. Through his Braves tenure, Swanson had a career .255 average with 102 homers and 411 RBIs. He was an anchor of Atlanta's 2021 World Series championship team, fielding the clinching out and relaying it to Freddie Freeman, another Braves star who left via free agency before the 2022 season. A two-sport star in baseball and basketball at Marietta, Swanson had a standout college career at Vanderbilt, which he helped lead to the College World Series title in 2014, then was the Number 1 overall pick of the 2015 draft by the Arizona Diamondbacks. He came to the Braves in a trade six months later and made his major league debut August 17, 2016. Commercial fishermen can take to the water beginning January 1 at 12 a.m. to take advantage of the opening day of shad season, according to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources' Wildlife Resources Division. Shad season will run through midnight March 31. Last year's shad season was tough, and catches fell short of what most fishermen wanted. WRD Senior Fisheries Biologist announced that to encourage participation, reward values for tagged shad that the agency has released in the Altamaha River have been increased, with reward ranging from $10 to $100 dollars. Commercial shad fishermen must have a valid Georgia commercial fishing license and are required to have purchased a commercial fishing endorsement for shad. Applications for commercial licenses and endorsements are available at GeorgiaWildlife.com or at Coastal GA DNR dot org. Vessels must be registered for use on Georgia waters. Georgia's commercial fishing regulations require that fishermen must report the harvest of all American shad, regardless of if they are sold or kept for personal consumption, to the CRD via Trip Tickets. Fishermen can obtain Trip Tickets by contacting CRD's Julie Califf. Christian Hernandez got hot from beyond the arc when North Cobb Christian needed him the most in the fourth quarter. The Eagles suffered a third-quarter lull after a strong performance in the first half, allowing the Blue Devils to chip away and get within striking range -- trailing by 14 -- going into the final quarter. That is when Hernandez found his stride. He hit all four of his 3-point attempts to give North Cobb Christian the separation it needed to pull away and win 85-63 Saturday night in Marietta's Lemon Street Classic. Hernandez led the way with 29 points and was a perfect 6-for-6 from long range in the second half. He finished with nine 3s for the game. Fernandez was not the only one making the big shots for North Cobb Christian (5-4). Albert Wilson finished with 27 points, including three key 3-pointers in the first half to help the Eagles get out in front early. He also pulled down 11 rebounds. Gabe Bolden was also in double figures with 13 points, including three 3-pointers. North Cobb Christian set the tone in the first quarter with 13 unanswered points to open a 23-11 lead. Before then, Marietta's Jack Bourgeois gave the Eagles fits. All 12 of Bourgeois' points came in the opening quarter as he scored Marietta's first seven points of the game to open a 7-2 lead. After North Cobb Christian scored five straight to tie it, Bourgeois hit a 3-pointer from the left corner to give the Blue Devils a 10-7 lead. After Todd LeCadre hit a free throw for a 11-10 lead, North Cobb Christian took over with its 13-point run and never looked back. Eight different players scored for the Blue Devils, led by Aden Canty's 14 points. Joseph Fuller was also in double figures with 10 and LeCadre finished with nine. Marietta could not overcome North Cobb Christian shooting 64 percent from beyond the arc. #CobbCounty #Georgia #LocalNews - - - - - The Marietta Daily Journal Podcast is local news for Marietta, Kennesaw, Smyrna, and all of Cobb County.

We've been swamped with all sorts of shocking and historical headlines in recent years. There was one that wasn't necessarily puzzling, more like intriguing. Society really lended it's attention to it, you know? That headline was titled, "The Great Resignation". It sounds like a movie and it may very well become one. It highlights an unprecedented time in American history where a record number of workers walked out of their jobs. According to the U.S Bureau of Labor Statistics, over 47 million Americans quit their jobs in 2021. This wave of resignations was spurred by the strains of the pandemic but studies show that it was a ticking time bomb all along. A 2022 Pew Research survey exposed the truths about the American labor force and the harsh, sometimes exhausting, environments that our industries have created. Recently resigned workers point to 'quality of work' fallacies like unfair pay, stagnation, disrespect (towards the employee), and limited flexibility as reasons they left their jobs. Some were pointing to the more obvious concerns that the pandemic brought about like needing to be home with their children during virtual learning. A very small percentage of people were concerned about the COVID-19 vaccine requirements that was implemented during the height of the pandemic. As highlighted by Joseph Fuller and William Kerr in the Harvard Business Review, "what we are living through is not just short-term turbulence provoked by the pandemic but rather the continuation of a long-term trend." You see, I believe that we are entering a new state of workforce here in the states. A moment in history that I believe will be healthy for us all as it serves as a reminder to employers to value the employees and curate healthy environments for them to work in. Greg Iacurci from CNBC feels the same way. In fact, in his article from last week (Apr. 11), he wrote, "These workers will likely account for a good deal of churn in the labor market as the so-called Great Resignation continues, and this suggests employers may need to reconsider pay, benefits and other workplace issues." “The power is going to the employee right now,” said Tim Glowa, who leads Grant Thornton's employee listening and human capital services team. “They are in the driver's seat.” The driver's seat, the vehicle, and the journey; I believe the labor market has set its sights for brighter days. The power has returned to the talent and employers are being held accountable for greed. Let's investigate what's behind the "Great Resignation" and see where we stand in all of this. No policy, just facts. Let's get into all on Episode 171.

Amidst today's labor shortage, employers are learning an important truth: we have no “extra” people. Unfortunately, many qualified workers are “hidden” from real consideration for jobs by ineffective artificial intelligence hiring screens, overly strict credentialing requirements, or a narrowmindedness from companies on how seemingly disparate skills could might serve to strengthen business operations. These barriers contribute to the existence of 27 million “hidden workers” in the US, including mothers returning to the workforce, those with physical disabilities, neurodivergent workers, and veterans. To discuss this problem, I am joined by AEI non-Resident Fellow and Harvard Business School professor Joe Fuller. In addition to his work at AEI, Joe co-leads the Managing the Future of Work project, and has published reports through HBS as well as numerous popular press outlets.

Aux États-Unis, 75 % des entreprises utilisent des systèmes automatisés de tri des CV pour les aider à embaucher. Mais ce système est-il fiable ? Sur quels critères ces algorithmes éliminent-ils les candidats ? On en parle avec notre invité Joseph Fuller, professeur de management à la Harvard Business School.
Joseph Fuller, Professor of Management Practice at Harvard Business School, joined the podcast to talk about the “Middle Skills” jobs employers have a consistently difficult time filling, and higher ed's opportunity to serve and credential this critical market.
Joseph Fuller is Professor of Management Practice at the Harvard Business School, where he oversees the Managing the Future of Work Project and focuses his research on the changing nature of work and the evolution of the C-suite. He was the founder and longtime CEO of The Monitor Group, the global strategy consulting firm, now Monitor Deloitte. In this episode, MBO Partners speaks with Professor Fuller about what, in this time of rapid change, the term “the future of work” actually means and how we can apply his learnings to workforce design and transformation. Professor Fuller also talks about what he sees as the biggest challenges facing today's CEO and organizational management and how many of those top requirements for organizational success involve changes to aspects of talent development and sourcing, including contingent work; digitalization and decentralization; diversity and inclusion; globalization and the labor supply chain. He discusses a recent BCG and HBS Future of Work study on the topic of contingent work and discuss how, in the future, more and more organizations will have needs for high-skill contingent talent for business-critical assignments – and how this is shifting the power equation in favor of the supply side of the talent equation. He also provides a look at the higher education sector and discuss the role of credentialization in talent acquisition. Citing his soon-to-be-published research, Professor Fuller talks about the ways AI is poised to improve and expand talent profile of companies in the future – a profile that will begin to also include the contingent worker to a greater degree.

Joseph Fuller, professor at Harvard Business School, and Allison Bailey, senior partner at Boston Consulting Group, say that the Covid-19 pandemic is only accelerating a recent trend of companies turning to digital talent platforms for highly skilled workers. The need for agility and specialized skills has more firms seeking help with projects. Meanwhile, more workers are joining these online marketplaces for the promise of greater flexibility and agency. Fuller and Bailey explain how organizations can strategically employ this on-demand workforce to unlock value. With HBS researcher Manjari Raman and BCG partner Nithya Vaduganathan, they wrote the HBR article "Rethinking the On-Demand Workforce."

Joseph Fuller is a Professor of Management Practice in General Management at Harvard Business School and he co-leads one of the school’s initiatives, Managing the Future of Work. He is the co-author of a recent Harvard study that tackles how and why employers should invest in a culture of care. On today’s episode, Dr. Fuller explains how a care culture is directly related to the future of work, and what companies need to be aware of when providing benefits to their employees. Key Takeaways: [1:30] How should people think about ‘the future of work’? [3:25] Is the workforce setup accordingly to sustain a higher influx of qualified women professionals? [4:55] How did the future of work-study transition into the caregiving topic? [14:00] The benefits that are often offered at companies aren’t always the benefits that employees want or need. [17:20] Men are very reluctant to use company benefits because they don’t want to be seen as lazy. [22:00] Companies don’t really want to know how many of their work staff is caring for an elder or a loved one with a disability. It comes down to it being a legal issue. [30:00] What is the likeliness of an employee leaving work voluntarily because they weren’t able to manage work and life? [34:55] It boils down to company culture where employees feel comfortable asking for flexible hours or asking to work at home a couple days a week. [39:10] What is Dr. Fuller hopeful for in the future? Mentioned in This Episode: The Caring Company: How Employers Can Cut Costs And Boost Productivity By Helping Employees Manage Caregiving Needs The Working Daughter book
Joseph Fuller, professor at Harvard Business School, says that the story we hear about workers being afraid for the future of their jobs might not be right. In surveying 11,000 people in lower-income and middle-skills jobs and 6,500 managers across 11 countries, Fuller discovered that, contrary to what bosses believe, many employees are excited about new technologies and willing to be trained in new skills. But they don't always know what they need to learn or how to access and pay for it. Organizations can do a better job of identifying the skills gaps they have or will soon face and using their existing workforces to fill them. Fuller's project is a joint venture between the HBS Project on Managing the Future of Work and the Boston Consulting Group’s Henderson Institute. He's a co-author of the HBR article “Your Workforce is More Adaptable Than You Think."
Joseph Fuller is not only a professor of management at Harvard, but he also co-leads a multi-year program called Managing the Future of Work. Listen in to our interview with Joe from the LearnLaunch 2018 conference, where he spoke about the need for employers to hire based on skills over degrees.
