This webinar took place on January 15, 2026.
2025 was the year of "What if?" 2026 is the year of "How to."
The workforce is bifurcating. While white-collar industries grapple with the realities of AI, a powerful "Blue-Collar Renaissance" is shifting the epicenter of talent scarcity.
To succeed this year, organizations must stop reacting to headlines and start predicting outcomes based on hard data.
Join Randstad and Cole Napper, Vice President of Research, Innovation, and Talent Insights at Lightcast, for your essential 2026 strategic kickoff.
We'll cover:
- beyond the buzzwords: moving from 2025 "What-ifs" to 2026 "How-tos."
- market bifurcation: addressing the dual challenge of AI transformation and blue-collar scarcity.
- data-backed leading: using the Lightcast toolkit to stay ahead of your competitors.
