Why workforce strategy matters.

Fifty-one percent of workers at America's largest public companies don't make a family-sustaining wage. Unpredictable schedules, limited advancement, and liquidity gaps leave millions of families struggling.

But here's what we know: business leaders control the lever. When they invest in workers, entire communities benefit. The question isn't whether corporate leadership matters—it's how to move more leaders to act.

 

What we do.

The Corporate Impact Lab equips senior executives with peer networks, proven methodology, and sustained implementation support to turn workforce commitment into enterprise-level change.

We don't just inspire. We stay through the hard part—helping leaders build business cases, navigate internal resistance, and implement strategies that stick.

Our model works.

• 100% of 2024 Santa Fe Summit participants made public workforce commitments within six months

• 80% of executives committed to workforce initiatives within six months (versus 50% before engagement)

• 534,200 workers at companies that have already implemented workforce investments

• 92+ Net Promoter Score from executive participants

What we're looking for in partners.

We seek funders who share our commitment to collaboration, innovation, and meaningful impact. Partners who understand that workforce well-being and business performance aren't at odds—they're intertwined.
