The conversation includes Chioke Mose-Teleford from the Corporation for a Skilled Workforce, Greg Handel with the Detroit Regional Chamber, and Karen Utz from Empire State Development.

  • Ep. 7: The Bus Stops Here: Employers Try Solving Turnover
    Aug 3 2023
    A missed phone bill, a late bus, or even a not-quite-completed degree can derail employment for many. Meanwhile, employers suffer the cost of poor retention and few promotions within their entry-level workers. In this episode, we learn about the Employer Resource Network, ERN, which brings businesses together to solve sticky employment issues in their region. We talk to Trinity Health about their apprenticeships and skills-based hiring. Both have increased the health system’s retention and diversity. Finally, follow us as we try to take Metro Detroit buses to work.

We look at programs that provide job opportunities for untapped workers and businesses, why things have changed, what it means for business, and how nonprofits are stepping up to give those often overlooked an opportunity for a brighter future.
