The Social Finance Institute, Workforce Realigned
In today’s rapidly changing economic landscape, meeting the challenge of full employment demands a reimagining of traditional approaches to workforce development. When training and upskilling efforts are pursued in isolation—by training providers, governments, and employers—the risk lands disproportionately on the shoulders of workers. But by breaking down silos and rethinking incentives and impacts, we can distribute risk more equitably to meet the demands of the future.
Workforce Realigned, Vol. II is a project of the Social Finance Institute and the Federal Reserve Banks of Atlanta, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Richmond. These partners came together through a common commitment to improving economic mobility.
Featuring 21 chapters authored by leading policymakers and practitioners, Workforce Realigned, Vol. II showcases a collection of outcomes-driven initiatives from across the United States that enhance opportunities for workers while addressing the talent demands of the 21st-century economy.
