Key Points
- While it may seem impossible for the Fed. to get it right based on survey results, good things are in fact coming for the U.S. economy. Despite a much higher chance of recession compared to previous results, with wages on the rise and lower unemployment rates, labor is certainly improving within the country.
- It is imperative to pay attention to big tech companies in the next few months. As a result of drastic increases in oil prices, many companies will have to respond in ways that haven’t been done yet. These tech companies however will likely be the least affected by such inflation.

Leveraging tools for workforces is crucial to utilizing all aspects of digital reality to its fullest extent. These key points along with the current cybersecurity crisis were just some of the conversations at CNBC’s Technology Executive Council’s Town Hall.
Key Points
- Figuring out a solid approach is non-negotiable when tackling the metaverse. For Rafaella Camera, Head of Brands & Advertisers Solutions for Unreal Engines, taking a creator first approach has garnered massive success for the company. While a creator first approach isn’t for everyone, companies must figure out what works best in order to capitalize on their success.
- With such vast possibilities within the metaverse, companies must focus not on what they think or hope will attract consumers, but pay attention to what consumers actually want. Looking at successful virtual patterns over the years can greatly help steer companies in the right direction.

Combatting online trolls, establishing a strong presence online, creating a unique social media strategy are all critical components to consider for the world of HR and social media teams. These few tips and tricks were among the numerous offered at CNBC’s Workforce Executive Council’s Town Hall.
Key Points
- “What’s common sense in real life is common sense on social media,” Sree Sreenivasan, a professor of Digital Innovation and CEO/Co-Founder of Digimentors said of how companies should go about implementing social media strategies. If you wouldn’t do it in person, don’t do it online.
- Negative comments are inevitable in the digital world. Instead of focusing on combating these comments completely, social teams should be connected to HR on reputable online platforms in order to gain an in depth understanding of their policies and how they deal with these matters.
