Come join Peter to listen and learn through his presentation:  Human Capital [R]evolution.  Beyond supply chain, the major constraint to post-pandemic growth are labor shortages and the war for talent. The good news - This may be new for the US, but it isn’t new for other parts of the world, and there is a proven playbook for alleviating this problem in the short term and solving it for the long term. The hidden gift of this crisis is a unique window of opportunity to make long-needed changes to the way we attract, engage, and retain the human capital we need to do business. Now more than ever you have permission to take a new approach, and a willingness to accept progress over perfection.
