Summary

In today's episode: We're seeing layoffs like we've never seen before, as artificial intelligence is built to replace jobs. It's changing the way we make decisions about the future. We don't kno what the economy will demand in 5, 10, or 20 years. As economies mature, they run out of certain growth opportunities; it becomes a matter of profitability rather than revenue. But that system can't hold forever without some kind of public reaction. 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.
