Making A Case For the "S" In ESG With Marcela Escobari

In this Gartner Talent Angle podcast, Marcela Escobari shares key
metrics about job quality, economic mobility and job equity.
While organizations are facing labor shortages in the short term,
Escobari argues that there’s been a long-term decline in job
quality. She explains how churn in low-wage jobs is expensive for
organizations, but low-wage employees often lack “stepping stone”
opportunities to advance their careers.


Marcela Escobari is the current Assistant Administrator for Latin
America and the Caribbean at the U.S. Agency for International
Development. At the time of this recording, she was a senior
fellow in the Center for Sustainable Development, housed in the
Global Economy and Development program at Brookings, where she
led the Workforce of the Future initiative.
