Flextirement Delivers Workforce ROI

When we talk about the Future of Work, it’s often in the context of how the workforce will adapt to changing technologies and enterprise dynamics. Much of the focus is on attracting, hiring, and then retaining the right candidates for the right roles from a tight and competitive talent pool. But what about the talent that’s been with the organization for several years, if not decades? It may be true that employees within this segment are closing in on exiting the workforce, but it doesn’t mean many are following this traditional trajectory. Quite the opposite. More senior workers are choosing “flextirement” as a preferred option over the immediate workforce withdrawal known as retirement.

Age Is Just a Number

This pivot brings benefits to both individuals and enterprises that can strengthen and support talent strategies.

DE&I and Balancing Business and Human Imperatives

The Future of Work movement would not be what it is without Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) playing a significant part in the paradigm. A decade ago, diversity was associated more with supplier initiatives focused on Minority- and Women-Owned Businesses. The term has evolved and expanded into DE&I where the human element is now the priority.

A recent Future of Work Exchange Podcast hosted by Christopher Dwyer, managing director for FOWX, featured Rocki Howard, chief equity and impact officer for The Mom Project, who discussed the role and impact of DE&I on the Future of Work movement.

The Mom Project is a digital talent and community platform serving 1.2 million users (the majority being moms as well as over 3,000 companies from small- to medium-sized businesses to Fortune 500).

This article recaps some of that discussion. Note that this excerpt has been edited for readability.
