  producing or retaining talent

  I like the question you end with about what is behind the anxiety of U.S business leaders because it points to 2 important prongs in the talent issue - creating a skilled workforce and hiring skilled workers. I think getting the best talent available is inextricably tied to the quality and the effectiveness of the U.S. education system starting at the primary ages in producing skilled, motivated workers who are poised to be lifelong learners. Business leaders should take the time to weight in heavily and forcefully on the education conversation with commitment, direction, discussion, and shared responsibility toward solutions.
