Jane: As I said, the resilience and agility of the American worker. For instance,<br />
someone who pre-COVID was working in the leisure and hospitality industry, that<br />
industry still has not come back in terms of the number of jobs to its pre-COVID<br />
level. We're still down 750,000 jobs in that sector. Those workers figured out how<br />
they could do other things. How they could identify their skills from the jobs they lost<br />
and transfer them to a sector that was building and adding jobs. That resilience and<br />
agility still is the thing that amazes me every day about the American worker in terms<br />
of challenges.<br />
I still think, as a country, we have a gigantic challenge when it comes to digital<br />
literacy. How do we not only do it better in our K-12 schools and higher education,<br />
but how do we incorporate digital learning styles and skills for adults already in the<br />
workforce? Because we know with the pace of change in technology, the<br />
implementations of technology, and the new software developments happening every<br />
day, you cannot thrive in this economy without those digital skills.<br />
