The Many Futures of Work: Rethinking Expectations - Breaking Molds
This podcast connects many futures of work to the root causes of work inequities for both today and in the foreseeable future. It gives listeners an opportunity to hear fresh solutions from a diverse group of grassroots activists, policymakers, and academics. We cast a wide net to include voices that are not often heard in public discourse about the futures of work. The podcast draws from the book by the same title published in late 2021 by Temple University Press.

Today's guest, Karen Maguire, is a Head of Division managing the Local Employment and Economic Development Program at the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development in Paris. Some occupations are more vulnerable to automation than others; the concentration of these occupations in a region will have a material consequence on the possible effects for the overall economy. We discuss these and many other factors that are driving local economic dynamics, as well as what regional policymakers are doing to chart new strategies.
