Executive Summary
The traditional, linear career path of 'learn, earn, return' is obsolete; in an era of rapid disruption, 'stability is the new risk' and individuals must embrace non-linear careers grounded in purpose and lifelong learning.
The United States must build new infrastructure, particularly for talent, to bridge the silos between its innovation ecosystem (entrepreneurship, venture capital) and the scale of government to solve major societal challenges.
A new framework for personal and professional value is needed, expanding the definition of 'net worth' beyond financial capital to include 'Compass Capitals' like mission, trust, experiential, learning, and health capital.
Artificial Intelligence is a transformative tool for human capital development, accelerating ideation, challenging personal biases in a safe environment, and enhancing professional skills.
