  • Secure Your Future People Experience Five Imperatives for Action

Yesterday’s assumptions about how workers behave and what they value are being upended. This is a new reality. Employers need to harness a different mix of skills, support new ways of working and learning, and create new work environments that meet the needs of a diverse workforce. People will demand to be more autonomous, entrepreneurial and free from the constraints of time and place. Businesses need to create a compelling people experience to drive success in a world where technology and changing expectations are redefining what working means for everyone. 4 | Secure your future people experience Your people experience is at risk Much of today’s conversation about the future of work depicts an epic battle between machines and humans. Technology – and technological determinism – is at the forefront of this way of thinking. It’s not a stretch to predict that technology will be embedded keep the best talent. The full results are published in Preparing for into just about everything; constant and extraordinary innovation tomorrow’s workforce, today.2 in artificial intelligence, robotics and the Internet of Things will continue to radically reshape work.

  • 2012-7-22.For Website.Woo-China's Growth Odyssey
    https://www.project-syndicate.org/onpoint/china-s-growth-odyssey-2017-02 PROJECT SYNDICATE: PS on Point Issue Adviser: a critical review of Project Syndicate’s hardest-hitting commentaries on an urgent global issue. University of California, Davis, economist Wing Thye Woo engages the views of Keyu Jin, Justin Lin, Stephen Roach, and other Project Syndicate commentators, to ask whether China can avoid the “middle-income trap,” even as it reckons with Donald Trump’s presidency. China’s Growth Odyssey 1 Fred Dufour/Getty Images China’s steadily declining rate of economic growth is a problem for both China and the world economy. Now that US President Donald Trump is set to wreak havoc on global stability, can China still hope to achieve the widely shared prosperity it has long sought? FEB 17, 2017 SHANGHAI – Will China’s sociopolitical stability and economic dynamism continue to hold? It’s a question China-watchers are asking more frequently now than at any time in the past three decades. This fall, the 19th Congress of the Communist Party of China will decide (or not) President Xi Jinping’s successor in 2022, while also replacing (maybe) five members of the seven-member Politburo Standing Committee. The result, one hopes, will not be a new period of turbulence like that which the election of Donald Trump has unleashed on the United States. The potential for political uncertainty in China comes at a time when its economy’s health seems to be waning, and when Trump’s presidency could pose a direct challenge to its growth model.

    Innovation We strive to create opportunities with new approaches and resources. Our Guiding Integrity Principles We do the right thing for the right reasons. Our culture is defined by six core values. They are the key to our storied legacy and the guide to our daily business decisions. Excellence We pride ourselves on the quality of our work, and we seek to exceed expectations. Entrepreneurship We believe that great organizations are built by employing and partnering with the best and brightest people. Talent We believe in fostering individual creativity and a sense of ownership. Stewardship We are dedicated to safeguarding the capital and trust of our clients, and advancing their best interests. A Letter From Managing Partner Peter Lawson-Johnston II At the time of writing this letter, the world is enduring a health crisis while the United States is undergoing a self-examination of societal inequities, both of which are challenging our preconceived notions of where and how we work, learn, worship, and most importantly, how we connect with each other as a community. This is our fourth annual Impact Report that documents our achievements and values as they relate to contributing to the communities where we live and work. But how do you assess your impact on the world, as a business, and as a corporate citizen, when the world seemingly has fundamentally changed? A crisis of this scale is remarkable in how it forces one to focus simultaneously on the uncertainty of today as well as the uncertainty of next year or future decades. Uncertainty can be insidious, and it is easy to withdraw or disengage.
