State of Our Workforce by National Fund for Workforce Solutions

Episode notes

What does the future of work really look like—and who is it for? In this episode, we talk with Chike Aguh, senior advisor at Harvard’s Project on Workforce, about what it takes to build a future of work that delivers not just innovation, but inclusion, equity, and economic mobility. Chike brings a rare blend of policy insight and on-the-ground experience to big questions shaping our economy: How do we ensure that every person can connect to meaningful work? What does real job quality look like in an age of AI? And how can we turn systemic into a springboard for opportunity? As we navigate an uncertain landscape, one truth remains clear—people are the only path.
