In 2022, the American Opportunity Index – a project led by Schultz Family Foundation, Burning Glass Institute, and Harvard Business School – shone a light on the true economic opportunity provided to workers by America’s largest companies. In the two years since, we’ve seen an increase in the volume of research, reporting, and discussion on the ways employers do and don’t actively support their employees’ financial well-being and economic mobility.

What have we learned from those discussions? What are the trends – large and subtle – that are shaping the way we approach career advancement in the U.S. private sector? And more importantly, what have we discovered about the practices, approaches, and solutions that can drive business growth alongside individual professional mobility?

Join NationSwell, the American Opportunity Index, and business leaders for an honest and action-oriented conversation on what’s working, what’s not, and what we need to change in order to build a mutually beneficial economic paradigm for companies and their workers.
