Virtual Hunch Lunch:
Economic Security and the Future of Work
The 2020 virtual Hunch Lunch video is available on-demand now. Explore hunches about Economic Security and The Future of Work from diverse speakers working in Maricopa County.
Description
There is something special about sharing a meal. Each year, we create a space for people to eat together and share "hunches" about building community resilience. This year, the Economic Resilience and the Future of Work themed Hunch Lunch went virtual. Featured guest speakers brought forward hunches about important economic resilience topics, including:
- Local economic responses to shocks of the COVID-19 pandemic
- Reimagining our workforce and education pathways
- Leadership during economic disruption
- Diversity in local businesses
- New technology in economic development
The thought-provoking hunches are the first step in developing a rich knowledge exchange, creating diverse partnerships, and sparking meaningful research. Watch our virtual Hunch Lunch on-demand and let us know what you think by connecting with us on social media!
