American leadership, prosperity, and competitiveness hinge on maximizing the contributions of our nation’s workers. In keeping with the nation’s interest in the global competitiveness of the American workforce, The CEO Center has a long tradition of helping all Americans to reach their full potential. As part of that effort, the Center assesses the challenges and drivers that may be keeping some Americans from more fully participating in the labor force or better developing in-demand talents and skills, the reforms that may be needed to the immigration system to best capitalize on international talent and proposes policy solutions in the national interest that will help more American families share in increasing prosperity through work.
Effective solutions include expanding pathways into the workforce, improving retention, promoting team-based and preventive care, and the use of technology.
