2014 London Summit - Talent Without Borders: Building a Global Workforce
Gregory Cappelli, Kris Engskov, Sonia Gardner, Jody Greenstone Miller, Toby Peyton-Jones, Richard Ditizio, Charles Lubar, Sunil Krishnan, Mike Milken
This summit addressed the global transition from traditional employment to a fluid, skills-based economy where millions in Southeast Asia join the middle class and U.S. workers increasingly navigate multiple careers. Leading organizations like Siemens and Starbucks implemented strategic reforms, including rapid curriculum updates and tuition funding, to bridge the widening skills gap while redefining retention through value alignment and flexible "learning and earning" models. Panelists concluded that outdated regulatory frameworks and rigid corporate structures must evolve to support a diverse, freelance-heavy workforce, emphasizing that cultural purpose now supersedes financial compensation in attracting top talent.

The Global Competition for Talent
Bob Bennett, Jim Cochran, David Ford, Jody Greenstone Miller, Sajan Pillai, Wei-Li Chong
A recent symposium convened by Jody Greenstone Miller and industry leaders from FedEx, JPMorgan Chase, and Sanofi to address the widening global skills gap and a 284,000-graduate minimum-wage surplus. Attendees discussed strategic shifts toward localizing talent acquisition, dismantling bureaucratic hierarchies, and adopting flexible, project-based work models to retain independent professionals and Millennial demographics. The gathering concluded with a consensus that nations and corporations prioritizing cross-cultural agility, open immigration policies, and decentralized workforce development will secure a decisive advantage in the evolving global labor market.
