I really enjoyed the commentary “A Dozen Surprises about the Future of Work: Implications for Workforce Professionals” by Kristin Wolff of Enhancing Workforce Leadership. She attended my Dozen Surprises talk and I thought the notes she posted had some very insightful interpretations that y’all might enjoy. Andy Hines
