Election Day is finally here, the rare day that will certainly make a difference in the trajectory of America. Leadership matters so much on days like this, and business leaders have a role to play: 🇺🇲 Encourage every employee to vote: Make sure everyone can vote by providing paid time off or flexible hours. And that everyone has access to support and protection if they need it while voting. Here's one resource: https://866ourvote.org/ 💪 Support your workforce: Researchers have found that worker wellbeing and productivity dropped in the three months before a presidential or midterm election, recovering fully three months after Election Day. Acknowledge that each person is experiencing different things, and work to foster the community of your workplace within that reality ( https://lnkd.in/eGsUpdqC ) 🤝 Model Civil Engagement: Set the tone for respectful, nonpartisan discussions and conflict resolution, ensuring a space where diverse perspectives can coexist and feel supported. 🏛️ Champion Stability: Our democratic processes are vital to economic resilience. In the days and weeks ahead, we must support and trust the process. Check out resources like https://lnkd.in/eyUykDAr for more information On Election Day, let's lead by example to support both our workforce and the broader democratic framework that sustains business. #ElectionDay #BusinessLeadership #Democracy

Centering employee voices is especially important in this era of generative AI where other research finds more than 30% of workers could see at least 50% of their occupations tasks disrupted by #AI . “There’s a conversation right now about upping productivity by eliminating jobs,” says JUST Capital President Alison Omens . “Centering employee voices is such a key part of thinking about how frontline workers can really advance this work in ways that make their jobs better, more productive and more fulfilling, as opposed to just thinking about this as a cost-cutting measure.” https://lnkd.in/gFmF25wv

Many of you know I have spent much of my time focused on making the economy work for more people across the country. The role of the business community matters to that— as employers, investors, and civic leaders. So what does the American people expect from business? A recent survey of Americans conducted by JUST Capital provides some insights (and full disclosure, I’m on their board). Two-thirds of those surveyed believe the current form of capitalism is NOT working for the average American. Further, they believe that CEOs of companies have an important role to play to make the economy better, such as addressing the items in the chart below. There’s lots of valuable findings.

Check out this powerful article by Holly Corbett and Forbes on the value of putting people at the center of business success, featuring insights from my team's latest research report , The Competitive Advantage of the Win-Win Workplace. The workplace is rapidly evolving—AI, automation, and a multigenerational workforce are changing the dynamics of work and what employees need to thrive. This research led by Future Forward Institute in collaboration with Alison Omens team at JUST Capital and Stuart Andreason and his colleagues at The Burning Glass Institute sheds light on how companies can adapt by investing in people-first practices to drive performance. Some key takeaways from our findings: 🔹 Listen to Your Employees: Companies that actively seek employee input and act on it see boosts in engagement and the bottom line. 🔹 Invest in Continuous Learning: Upskilling and development programs keep employees agile and help companies remain competitive. 🔹 Redefine Success Metrics: Beyond profit, track social and environmental impact to foster a truly sustainable business. As I shared with Holly, “Investing in employee growth and listening to their needs aren’t just good practices—they’re essential for a thriving business.” Thank you, Holly, for spotlighting this important conversation. And a special things to Patti Constantakis at Walmart.org for supporting the Competitive Advantage of the Win-Win Workplace research. See the full article here: https://lnkd.in/e35eYGUW

A new study from our friends at the The Brookings Institution finds that more than 30% of all workers could see at least half of their occupation’s tasks disrupted by generative #AI , and that the disruptions will be felt across “cognitive” and “nonroutine” tasks, especially in middle- to higher-paid professions. What can businesses do to prepare? Our latest #JUSTReport takes a closer look: https://lnkd.in/e-4EjXzd

Each year, JUST Capital asks Americans to prioritize what issues matter most when it comes to business behavior. And this year's central message is striking. The 2024 Americans' Views on Business provides executives a clear direction: across political and other demographic lines, executives need to get back to the basics. Focus on issues where stakeholder impact dovetails with business performance like paying #fairwages , investing in your workforce, treating #customers better, offering products or services at a #fairprice , minimizing harm to the environment, strengthening communities, and more. Corporate #leadership is under unprecedented pressure. Performance expectations are sky-high, scrutiny is intense, and the margins for error are basically nonexistent. Our data shows there is a ‘win-win-win’ that's not mere conjecture; it’s a fact. Explore the insights: https://lnkd.in/gCtQqJpb

Today’s corporate leaders face a deeply divided political landscape, rapidly shifting stakeholder demands, ongoing economic uncertainties, and myriad technological, regulatory, and environmental forces that present both risk and opportunity. Against this backdrop, we release the 2024 Americans’ Views on Business Survey that highlights the public's clear direction for corporate leaders: 1️⃣ The majority of Americans – regardless of political party, ideology, or other demographic differences – are generally united in their expectations for corporations, particularly in areas where positive societal impact dovetails with positive business performance: paying people fairly, investing in their workforce, treating customers better, offering products or services at a fair price, minimizing harm to the environment, strengthening communities, and even making good on climate commitments. 2️⃣ Whereas in previous years we saw greater demand for CEOs to speak out on social issues, opinion is now much more divided overall. When looking at political ideology spits, we see the percent of Americans on both sides of the aisle who believe CEOs should speak out only on issues related to their business grow between 2021 and 2024. 3️⃣ In today’s low-trust environment, the American public is looking for more information on what companies are actually doing, not what they say they are doing. The leaders who create value for all their stakeholders, also create more value for their shareholders, for themselves, and for society at large. Our data shows this ‘win-win-win’ is not mere conjecture; it’s a fact.
