Abstract
  • Zeynep Ton’s The Good Jobs Strategy is a critical resource for workforce development practitioners and economic developers who are interested in growing the number of “high road” jobs in their communities – jobs that offer a family-sustaining wage and opportunities for advancement, and in which workers are empowered to make decisions with some degree of autonomy. One way to grow the number of high road jobs in your community is to attract new businesses that already offer good jobs. But another critical strategy that economic developers can use to improve the job structure in their communities is to work closely with existing small and medium businesses to help them offer high road jobs.
