In today's episode:

A single monthly number moves markets every time, even though it's meant to be revised.

There's a good reason your hiring struggles might have nothing to do with the national labor market, and everything to do with something closer to home.

A struggling factory town looked like nothing but bad news on paper, until one company saw an opportunity that most CEOs would have missed entirely.

CEO Daily Brief is a 5-minute daily podcast where business pragmatism meets inner wisdom. Hosted by Dr. Jessica Kriegel, Chief Strategy Officer at Culture Partners. She is frequently joined by John Frehse, Global Head of Labor Strategies at Ankura.

Jessica launches the second edition of The Work Signal, making the case that the monthly jobs report is far less useful to CEOs than the specific opportunities and challenges happening inside their own organizations.
