Connecting people who need work to jobs is a big issue to be tackled in the coming year, according to Chike Aguh, senior advisor at the Projects on Workforce at Harvard University. He notes those jobs have to be “dignified, protected, and respected.” 

Aguh says placing people in open jobs is important to ensuring that the U.S. is geopolitically secure. He says employers have a responsibility to recruit from talent pools that have previously gone untapped. 

“You’re going to have to know how to work with community organizations who are on the ground in communities who may not have heard of your firm before,” explains Aguh. “We haven’t made it easy for the people who need work…to find the work that needs to get done. That is a place where we have to do much better.”
