The Future of Work is Changing—Fast.

As baby boomers retire, Europe, Japan, and the U.S. are facing a growing reality: fewer available workers. Lower birth rates and shifting life choices mean fewer young people are entering the workforce to replace them.

At the same time, the U.S. will see fewer college-aged students, even among those who believe a traditional degree is worth the cost.

What does this mean?

🔹 Persistent labor shortages
🔹 A greater need for vocational and trade schools
🔹 A shift from pedigree-based hiring to skill-based training
🔹 Employers investing directly in upskilling and reskilling talent

The future of work won’t be defined by where you went to school—but by what you can do.

Recently traveled to Colombia to the city of Gautape El Peñol to meet with Yesid Monticello, owner of Monticello Group.

He shared an inspiring vision for a 300-foot Jesus monument designed as a mixed-use destination featuring businesses, investment properties, short rentals, walking paths, green spaces, cable cars, helicopter experiences, and much more.

This project has the potential to become a historic cultural and economic landmark. I look forward to supporting Yesid's vision by helping connect the resources and capital needed to bring it to life.
