## Resource

In today's episode: Deloitte is cutting benefits like parental leave, especially for the internal roles that are most vulnerable. Is this call worth the bad press? During turbulent times, people are often too distracted to notice some of the more egregious moves by companies. The model of consulting itself has been fundamentally changed by AI. The new question is: what unique value can consultants bring that these companies can't do for themselves? There's a massive amount of information out there. The most valuable people in the economy are going to be the ones who can sort out the useful information and feed it to people who trust them. CEO Daily Brief with Dr. Jessica Kriegel is a 5-minute daily podcast where business pragmatism meets inner wisdom. John Frehse, Global Head of Labor Strategies at Ankura, joins Jessica every week to discuss the latest news in labor, employment, and workplace culture by asking each other the question: 'What Are You Paying Attention To Now?' ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Connect with Dr. Jessica Kriegel on LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Connect with John Frehse on LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
