We hear every day from our member companies—of every size and industry, across nearly every county—that they’re facing unprecedented challenges trying to find enough workers to fill open jobs. Right now, the latest data shows that we have 8.1 million job openings in the U.S. but only 6.8 million unemployed workers.

We have a lot of jobs but not enough workers to fill them. If every unemployed person in the country found a job, we would still have millions of open jobs.

Join us for a dynamic conversation exploring the challenges and opportunities shaping today's workforce. Gain valuable insights from industry leaders, policymakers, and workforce experts as they share their perspectives on talent acquisition, development, and retention. Don't miss this chance to network with peers and discover strategies to thrive in an evolving business landscape.
