Special thanks to Paradigm for Parity for sharing Kate Duchene’s insights in their latest CEO Spotlight Series. Kate spoke on the disproportionately negative toll the pandemic has had on women and people of color. "It’s vital that business leaders set actionable goals and redouble efforts to bring marginalized groups back into the workforce.”
Our President and COO Tim Brackney spoke with Forbes contributor Stephen Diorio from The Revenue Enablement Institute about how RGP is setting up for growth amid the increasing demand for agile, borderless workforces. “Transformation is happening at a hyper rate.

Congratulations to our CFO, Jenn Ryu, for being nominated as "CFO of the Year" by Orange County Business Journal! RGP is proud to be a sponsor of tonight's celebration of outstanding performance for the preceding fiscal year. And what a year it's been! Congrats Jenn!

Is Your Organization Surviving Change — or Thriving in It? In this Harvard Business Review article, John P. Kotter, Vanessa Akhtar and Gaurav Gupta write that the single biggest challenge we face as teams, organizations and a society at large is to "adapt fast enough to match the increasing uncertainty and complexity around us.
