The Twin Cities Daily Planet’s series, The New Normal: Deciding Community Priorities in a Downsized Economy, tackles a different issue each month. In May we’re talking about work issues, and we’re asking people in the Twin Cities:“What’s the best way to secure work and good jobs for Minnesotans in the future?”
Come and chat with others over snacks, learn some basics about work trends, and let us know what you think the future of work and jobs in Minnesota should look like. Whether you’re an employee or an employer, we want to hear your thoughts on short and long term problems and solutions for creating a healthy work landscape.
We’ll be using research from the Wilder Foundation and an article from the Twin Cities Daily Planet to get this interactive conversation going. By participating in this discussion, though, you’ll provide the part that matters most. We’ll report on these conversations in the TC Daily Planet, and the Bush Foundation will share the results with policy makers.
