Episode Description

What happens when AI, immigration policy, and economic trends collide? The job market gets weird—fast. In this must-listen episode of Geeks, Geezers, and Googlization, renowned labor market expert Gad Levanon joins Ira Wolfe to dissect the current state and future trajectory of work. Forget boring forecasts—this is a raw, eye-opening exploration of what's really happening.

Here's what's on the table:
-AI's Growing Grip on Jobs – From coding to manual labor, AI is transforming tasks faster than anyone expected. What does that mean for your future career?
-How Weird Will It Get? – The job market is shifting under our feet, with immigration trends and tech advancements reshaping labor supply and demand. Buckle up.
-The Skills Gap is Real – With nearly half of jobs requiring new skills, the question isn't whether you'll need to adapt—it's how fast.
-Immigration and Workforce Planning – Gad and Ira cut through the noise to focus on the practical impacts of immigration policy changes on hiring and workforce strategies.
-Remote Work vs. Office Showdown – The return-to-office debate rages on. How are companies balancing flexibility, productivity, and talent retention?

Get ahead of the trends and learn how to adapt, grow, and stay relevant in the ever-evolving world of work with labor market expert Gad Levanon and global future of work thought leader Ira S Wolfe. Hit play now!
