Through real-world case studies\, we’ll explore how companies are leveraging cross-sector collaboration\, policy engagement\, and new models to drive scale and sustainability. \nThis session is part 2 of a 3-event series called Impact X Talent\, cohosted by NationSwell and the International Youth Foundation. The series is exploring scalable and sustainable workforce development strategies that create shared value for businesses and communities. The ultimate goals of the series are to: \n\nDevelop a playbook of case studies featuring firms that have aligned impact strategies to talent challenges at the firm and sector level; and\nIdentify opportunities for joint action to move the needle on shared workforce challenges.\n\nTo encourage open and candid discussion\, this event follows the Chatham House Rule – attendees may share insights from the conversation but cannot attribute statements to specific individuals or organizations.
