Senior leaders are starting to feel increased optimism about their ability to get or keep a job these days, according to LinkedIn’s Workforce Confidence Index. People in roles at the director level and above had lagged behind individual contributors in their feelings about their job security, and that gap had contributed to lower confidence scores in previous surveys. LinkedIn’s biweekly confidence index charts professional sentiment around three indicators: the ability to get or keep a job, improve your finances and advance in your career. With the improvement around job security, senior leaders are now in line with individual contributors, both on that measure and overall. Their composite confidence score was 31, a four-point improvement, in the most recent survey, compared with 30 for individual contributors and 29 for the U.S. as a whole. Confidence scores for individual contributors and the U.S. overall remained stable. If you’re in a leadership position, how are you feeling better about the state of the job market? What might be driving the increased confidence among your peers? Read more about the latest #WorkforceConfidenceIndex findings here: https://lnkd.in/gA3uDUB ?: Beth Kutscher
What CEO of Starbucks is saying is pure garbage. No basis for it.
Not feeling confident. But working at home is ideal.
I have no confidence in job market because I turned 65 and was released by my employer. The release was because I was not able to perform my job duties as fast and as good as I use to.
Proper statement is, if you are given a choice between job security and your life at the present time what would you pick.
I feel confident that Our Business process has impacted so many families in a positive way !
Beth Kutscher thank you for sharing. Increased confidence levels might be a good thing unless of course it is misplaced confidence. It is hard to know what the next few months or year or more will bring therefore I am curious as to what has lead to the increased confidence. I work in the area of autism and developmental disabilities and the COVID-19 pandemic has had a huge impact on our field. Schools are closed, many clinics are closed, and telehealth is not always feasible or effective. I am less confident as a vaccine is not on the horizon, testing is not where it needs to be, and it is unclear if people will continue to engage in physical distancing. Nonprofit agencies often rely on fundraisers some of which have been canceled and in other cases contributions are down due to staggering levels of unemployment. I would love to hear what I am missing. Thanks for sharing!

4 年Other sources are in the same boat as well. My basis is logic, common sense and my background. Your background of CPA is a one way street. I am going to keep it very simple and say that under any situation when there is a race between now and then or rush and delay...delay always wins.
