In today's episode:

A company laid off thousands of workers and then called a surprising group of former employees.

The costly mistake some companies make during mass layoffs, and why it happens.

A shift in the hiring market reveals the difference between a shortage of talent and a shortage of exceptional talent, and why that distinction matters.

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 and John unpack Amazon's push to rehire employees who left over return-to-office policies, and what it reveals about the real state of the talent market.
