'People have a lot of power:' What bosses need to realize about the worker shortage
from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy
The worker shortage is still here, a ton of businesses have help wanted signs in the windows. Most of the discussion and the hot takes about the worker shortage have focused on the workforce, what individual workers or job seekers want or aren't able to accept anymore. We wanted to take some time to focus on employers. What are bosses doing to adjust to this new normal? Do they appreciate that for the first time in a long time, they truly have to compete for people? Is there any self-awareness that maybe their old playbook isn’t in line with what people are looking for these days? It's a lot to unpack, so we called Jennifer Rossi Long, Senior Director of West Chester University’s Twardowski Career Development Center.
