Ron Hetrick, the Vice President, Staffing Strategy and Sr. Labor Economist at Lightcast, joins the Directionally Correct podcast to discuss his now-famous research on “Who’s going to do the work” and his book “The Demographic Drought”. In this episode, we have some of the most fascinating discussion we’ve ever had on the labor and economy (e.g., surplus of college grads, demographic shifts, low birth rates, inflation, and immigration), we discuss Ron’s thoughts on M. Night Shyamalan movies and “Don’t Look Up”, what is the real cause of inflation right now, how Lightcast gives you access to comprehensive labor and economic factor data, and more shenanigans in the Nerdery. You’ll want to check out this episode of the #1 people analytics podcast!
