It's coming faster than most people recognize.
With the fast-paced arrival of innovative and transformative technologies, will workers whose jobs are most likely to be disrupted have the skills and training required for the new jobs being created? — Emma Coalition

Guest Michael Lotito is a shareholder with the law firm Littler Mendelson, and is one of the premier labor attorneys in the nation.

As importantly, Mr. Lotito is one of the nation’s thought leaders on workplace policy and, as such, is also co-chair of Littler’s Workplace Policy Institute.

Back in March, Mr. Lotito came onto Labor Relations Radio and, while the conversation was mostly about labor policy and various things going on with the National Labor Relations Board, he touched on some of the broader changes that are going on in the American workplace and what he’s been doing about it.

This episode is a deeper dive into some of those issues and the Emma Coalition a project Michael co-founded and named in honor of his granddaughter.

The Emma Coalition is dedicated to educating the employer community and policymakers about the issues surrounding TIDE™️—which stands for technology-induced displacement of employees.
