Businesses grow and prosper by retaining and reinvesting in the productive capabilities of workers who can transform ideas into innovative goods and services. These workers act collectively and learn cumulatively; they effectively form the middle tiers of innovative business. This conversation addressed the roles for business enterprises, civil society organizations, government agencies, and labor unions in restoring the middle.
